GasGuzzler is off the scale
Default Re: H2 idler and pitman arms replacement

1. If you have (it is being called different terms on this forum) --
a. Sloppy steering or
b. Steering wanders or
c. Steering drfts
2. With the front wheel(s) off the ground, grab a wheel using both hands by the west and east sides. Rock your wheel and get a feel on how much play it has. I forget what the dealers mechanic said, but I think the free play should be less than 0.5 inch from end to end.

3. Abnormal tire wear and an alignment cannot help.

This is NOT a H2 only problem. This apprently is a GM truck steering problem. See the below Google search:
