I mean, this right here seems to lead you down the path we've all said: Your issues might not be with the steering box.
None of us know what the true problem is, but one of the hallmark problems with self-diagnosis is imagining a situation, taking it as fact, then spending countless hours and dollars going at it, just to find out it was never what you imagined it was. You'll save yourself a lot of unnecessary stress if you get some proper diagnostics done first.
I think we would all love to help, but right now this feels like throwing ideas at the wall hoping something will stick instead of following the evidence and excluding other, simpler possibilities first.
But then you jump to this, and I'm lost again. What makes you think this?I figured out why I have the death wobble, I believe that the ball joints were not torqued down to spec and became loose.
You've got evidence of something else going on, but seem to be ignoring it and going to a completely different problem that you've got no evidence of yet. What am I missing? So far all your posts are "I think" and "I believe" and "In my head" and so on, but nothing of substance is there to help troubleshoot. It all seems speculative and imaginative. Nothing with "I saw" or "I observed" or "I measured".I believe that the dead space in the steering wheel is because of the input shaft into the steering box not fitting perfectly.
