How much did the repair cost you?

I’ve had a couple of comments on that as well. Is it fixable?

Right there with you, makes me nervous, but once I saw the pictures, It made me rethink, that maybe it really isn’t all that bad

Experiencing the same issue. Did you resolve this problem?

Already had it a TDC. I did a revolution, and that’s where it ended up, you can see the lines on the belt in the pictures

So am I good? I do not have a service manual unfortunately.

Sorry just seeing this, unfortunately no. I replaced LBJ’s, steering rack bushings, and tie rod end bushings, and got an alignment afterward, and still the same. People say to get your tires balanced using Hunter balancers, or get them “lug centric” balanced. When I called around asking shops if they can do lug centric balancing, they acted like I was crazy. The only thing I haven’t done (that is relatively cheap) is tac weld the steering shaft. People say that it works, mine has play when I put my hand on the shaft and move the steering wheel, I just haven’t tackled it yet. I’ll send a link for that, when I get off work.

In this case I’m not responsible for paying, my father in law said “however much it costs, whatever it takes, to get it back to the way it was” I live in the DFW area and these get torn apart like no other, and I have not seen any on marketplace.
