I have changed out front suspension on my 65 c10 with a 1975 suspension(about 15 years ago) it became very sloppy. I replaced the ball joints,drag linkand tie rod ends along with two rebuilt gear boxes(one from gm). The first gear box was very loose.the gm unit helped that but is still quickie and easy to over correct along with being tight. I took it to a good front end man and he checked the box to make sure it wasn't too tight. Any suggestions? I appreciate the help from you guys.

The only thing left is the pitman arm and the idler arm. When you install these items you only need to snug them down. After that tighten them only enough to get the cotter key installed.
