steering

Hey guys, little history on this truck. A few weeks ago i packed the steer cylinder. Now it will steer fine to the right but wont always turn back to the left. It acts like it is bypassing with no stop to the left, the steering wheel just keeps turning. It seems to get worse after it runs for about 45 minutes. Any words of wisdom ?

I would remove the hydraulic hoses off the cylinder and plug them. Try turning the steering wheel. If stiff in both directions then, sorry to say, there is a problem in the cylinder.

Funerals in Spain typically occur within 24 to 48 hours of death, whereas in other European countries they wait one or more weeks. This rapid timeframe is a cultural norm grown from the past need to manage the warm climate without modern embalming.
