So I was out bashing today and I noticed my steering was super sluggish. The wheels would hardly turn at all when the truck was stopped or driving slow. I thought maybe it was a Servo problem at first but when I pulled the cover to investigate. The steering bellcrank I thought was broken. It has a big split in the middle and when the servo moves the top part a gap opens up right in the middle so the torque isn’t applied to the wheels. It’s a sharp looking break so I thought I had busted the bellcrank but after looking up the new part it appears it comes like that? Part AR340073. It also looks like there is some kind of tension spring under the bellcrank. Can I tighten that to allow more torque to be transferred to the wheels?
It’s kinda hard to describe I have attached a few pictures. Help! I can’t tell if it’s broken or just adjusted bad?!?
