Mostly on left hand turns. Now what....ughhh...\nFeels like a bearing in the column itself but will post up findings. Was not a good weekend for the Travco a the windshields came loose as well.(Looks at torches and 40yd dumpster) :x

Dang... tough weekend.\nI would disconnect the drag link and see if you can "feel" the bind in the steering box or column.

Found the problem. Mine has tilt wheel and I tilted it back towards me and the shaft is hitting the floor board. I will post a pic.

Glad that was an easy fix! Those windshields are a whole other story...
