 | 1997 Sierra steering issues Hi all, i'm new to the group and have a question. It seems that the steering will become loose then tighten up again. I think its the EVO sensor. I do have another question. How much vertical play is allowed on the pitmann and idler arms? Thanks Karl

| do you get this feeling of losing and then regaining power steering like on off ramps or lane changes on highway if so i would see it is the evo system but is just needs the sensor at the base of the steering colum steering wheel speed/position sensor we at the dealer have done alot on that bodystyle |

| The dealer is going to replace the steering sensor. It has developed a POP! in the front end. I took the service tech for a ride and when it POPPED! He looks at me and says"what was that" I said you tell me your the expert lol. When it Pops you can feel it in the floorboard and steering colum... were stumped. I think front hub or front rear but i'm no expert.

 "You tell me you're the expert".  That's funny. I mean no disrespect to the tech but that was really funny.
