Hey, it's Matt typing from Chris' account here at Best of Show.
Chris and I were talking, and he doesn't think that there is any kind of binding action. The wheel moves smoothly from lock to lock, and isn't notchy; it just doesn't want to center itself coming out of a turn, meaning I have to pull it back around. After the last alignment I noticed a little bit of return when I took my hands of the wheel leaving the parking lot, but not enough to keep the car from wanting to make a U turn.
When we had the car on the lift before, with me in it, back before SEMA we had the lines reversed and the wheel shot back around without making any noise, and after it was fixed it turned smoothly
Regardless of the fact that we doubt it's binding, we'll check everything out when we get the rear bar under the car, hopefully later this week. I still haven't called DSE about the issue, but will tomorrow to see what they think.
Matt
