Default Re: sensitive steering problem

Thanks. I'll try all possibilities, including swapping the tires for another set.. however, I had 2 garages (both specialize in Hummers) to check out the steering already, and so far they didn't find anything out of order. But it is screwed, I can say, I've been driving this H3 since 2007.

The H3 service manuals arrived at our SoCal home doorstep yesterday, I'll get them shipped over here to Europe ASAP. Will be expensive since the package is supposed to weight over 10 pounds, but I need the service manuals since the local shops don't seem to be able to sort it out.

Do a rotation of the 5 tires and you could check if there is any noticble difference (aside from the typical) in 2wheel to 4wheel drives.

If the wheels check then go to the rack and back to the pinnion and see if something is out. Many times when the vehicle is up on lift they find play in the wheels from tie rods being out and the like.

Good luck diagnosing the issue.

Have fun
