Well, just got back from my favorite mechanic and he checked ball joints
and tie rod ends and found nutin'.
I had him drive it and he heard and felt it in the steering column as had
I, he said bring it back for his Front End Specialist to look at, he did
not have a clue as to what it may be...more to come on this tomorrow. But
if anyone else has any thoughts or similar problems......Me and My Mechanic
would appreciate hearing about them.

Excuse the daytime signature block, im at work
