Has anyone used a steering stop to make it stop shorter? | | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 | Tom, most all our old trucks have stops built in, you might get more help being more specific, factory setup or ?? ... year? straight axle or modern front clip? wheel/tire size? etc

There are no steering stops on my 54/55 2-ton 350 GMC COE (as are found on smaller trucks). I checked with Spanky about this, and I think he said he also could not find "exterior" stops as used on smaller trucks.
When I put the steering column back on (this coming Spring), I am going to see how the steering stops. Now, without the steering box/connection in place, the front axle is the steering stop.
