After reading Joseph's I did a quick check on the shocks and found I could tighten the upper shock mounts about one flat (I have Putske's Bilstein shocks mounted) but to be on the safe side I will give the entire front end a good nut and bolt before ruling anything out.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="color:#3333ff" data-mce-style="color: #3333ff;"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="color:#3333ff" data-mce-style="color: #3333ff;">I am running about 27 psi on the Michelin XAS's and I will also check toe as per Dave Porter's suggestion.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="color:#3333ff" data-mce-style="color: #3333ff;"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="color:#3333ff" data-mce-style="color: #3333ff;">In the meantime it has been quite a while since I have checked the fluid level in the steering box and I ran out of time to check it today as I must move the cold air hose in order to get to it.
