actually the last time i was on it hard i left the bar with two girls who wanted a ride in the truck so we went out and raised hell around town and then off road. it was crazy. short story long we were tearing it up so much that the truck shut off on me completely in the middle of a donut session while at 1700+ on the pulse. popped the hood and it was puking coolant everywhere from teh puke bottle, the turbo and exhaust manifold were cherry red... the truck has been ****** at me ever since...

Cracked frame at steering box
How do I ask this? do you turn the steering wheel when you are stopped? IF so don't do that for it puts alot more stress on allll the components. Only when you are moving and just before you are fininshed your turn (3 ft) start turning you wheel the other direction. Good luck.
