If it’s been that long since you changed your hubs and you’re in Jersey you’re going to have tons of FUN when you go to replace them. I bet they are super corroded at this point and will be a bear to get out.

Oh, we have our ways here in the rust belt...

I changed the 1 hub--ds I think--at around 225--240k, and it was a PITA! Rusty as hell. Other side is still nice n quiet.
Bet I just jinxed myself.

Can be abs but usually ends up being a hub bearing and like mentioned you can see abs data and see which one is bad

2nd you can printout after car is off lift. At least on a hunter machine cause I can go back and get before/after on ANY alignment been done. Sounds like they hiding something considering they said they got it as good as they could

Steering feels much better then before. I don't think there's excessive play--if the is I'm probably used to it, it does have over 295,000 on it lol. I know thete's a way to tighten up the box some--and you can mess it up if you go too much.
Idk what the deal was with the printout. I asked and he said the tech hit the printout but it didn't, and once the vehicle is off the machine you can't print it after the fact. I just hope they're not trying to hide something from me. I had given him the old one to see what the deal was and when I asked for them back he said the tech said they blew out the window on the test drive. Why the f@ck would he take them with him on a test drive?

Yeah, I thought my steering was ok until I replaced the idler and pitman arms. Now it feels new. Very tight. There’s almost zero play.

Wtf. I can’t believe the shit you’re dealing with there man. They say it blew out the ******* window..?? ********! Excuses excuses. These guys are a joke too! What did you pay for the alignment? I’d demand a printout. That’s horseshit.

Blew out the window with their credibility lol.

Steering arms really do make a difference same 260k mile steering box with no adjustments here and it's as tight as can be.

You could have an ABS module that's just worn out. I fought with my s10 for a while. Replaced every single brake part. Master, booster, calipers, lines, drums, wheel cylinders, everything. Bought the tool to bleed ABS, wouldn't connect. I deleted the abs with a late 80s s10 proportioning valve. That fixed it. Obviously I tried to keep abs for safety reasons but the ol dime was right at 300k and I wasn't spending $1,200 for a reman abs module. She rolled 362K on my way home from work yesterday
