The last couple of days I have noticed when I go over a small bump in the road it feels like the steering column is loose...its almost like a thumping feeling........anyone else have any issues at all like this.........takin the truck in this week.....just thought I would ask here b4 I took it in.any sort of problems with the steering/ column.....2004.5 CC stock suspension.


Thanks Guys.....

Almost every GM truck from 99 up has gets this problem eventually. There is a TSB to replace a steering shaft but it sounds like it is on backorder. You might have to wait a bit to get it fixed. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley5.gif

I've read quite abit lately about steering shaft problems even as new as 04's

anyone have the tsb # for this....????? thanks guys.....

do a search for the famous chevy front wheel "clunk" - not sure if
there is a tsb listed or not but all the dealers have the info as its
pretty common

NorCal 2500HD, go to the "TSB" section of this forum, and its all
there. Just print it out & take it to the dealer with
you. It list the TSB #, and step by step instructions on the GM
recommended cure. Good Luck, DinoMaxhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley1.gifhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley1.gif

For what it's worth, I have had the steering shaft, and the steering box bearing replaced at different times. And the faults or rattles were detected going around bumpy cloverleafs only, straight line driving never indicated any faults.


good luck
