    You sure its the steering box and not the track rods... I have wobble in my 4600 the steering box was perfect just track rods have play and that causing the steering wobble....

    Cms might be worth a try

    Before you go can you jack the front of it off the ground, see how much play is in the trunion pin and as GM says the track rod ends. Hubs are prone to wear as well as the truss bearings and bushings on the stub axles.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    Thanks for the advice, I will check trunion pin and track rod first and see how bad it is afterwards.
