The issue
THE STEERING GEAR RELIEF VALVE SETTING AND POWER PUMP PRESSURE USED WHEN THESE VEHICLES WERE MANUFACTURED COULD RESULT IN FORCES WHICH COULD YIELD OR CRACK THE STEERING ARM. IN ADDITION, SOME OF THE STEERING ARMS USED DURING THIS PERIOD MAY NOT HAVE RECEIVED PROPER HEAT TREATMENT. ONE, OR A COMBINATION OF THESE FACTORS COULD CAUSE A BROKEN STEERING ARM AND LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL.
