Dry turn-stops ???????

Not sure why it would only do it hot but you never know

even after just 30 minutes a thumping noise that fells mid to front when turning either left or right

I posted a similiar problem a while ago on my 99 XLT. After warming up, I would occasionally feel a thumping through the steering wheel. It only happens when warm, although it has not happened in some time. I never found what was causing it, but it's interesting to know you have a similiar problem only when the truck has warmed up.

i found the problem to be the cv joints changed them both for 300. it took a while to find this prob.runs like a top now .
