steering box jacked???
So My steering wheel was turned to the left one day after I took a corner, not a right turn just a gradual corner, well I thought It was the bushings cause when I would turn the wheel i could see the whole box move. well I just replaced all the bushings with new ones from wheelers and it is just as bad.... what the hell?? any input would be cool... thanks

Yeah, my rack still moves even with the poly bushings. I think it has something to do with the 35s.
As for your steering being out, have you checked your steering extension from the Fabtech lift, where it attaches the column to the rag joint?

so apparently I had 2 bolts from the lower control arm loosen and fall out and then on sat night one sheared off the head and bent the remaining one, I had steering with only on wheel, and lucky for me I was on snow and ice or it would have ripped the wheel off. anyway I'm replacing them with grade 8 bolts and that should fix the problem, I had Toyota look at it a couple days before it went out and they said I had to order a new bushing for where the steering shaft goes through the fire wall.... they almost made me total my truck with a very very wrong diagnosis, had the looked closely they would have seen that it was missing some bolts under there....
