I have a 99 Freightliner FL70 that has been converted to a Toter. The rig runs great and pulls my '28 enclosed great as well. My question is on the steering -there is still some slop before the wheels start to correct. I have replaced the steering box (there was a lot of slop in the old box) and added a stabilizer link to the front "I" Beam. It is still not where I would like it, but not sure where else to start looking. The tie rod ends and drag link are tight, King pins seem good as well. Has anyone tried the spring loaded shock set-ups that I see for some of the big Class A's?? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
