    Help! Pulling to the right when braking

    Power Steering Cylinder? Would a defective or failing power steering cylinder cause pulling to the right under moderate braking? I just replaced my power steering cylinder and the pulling to the right issue is much better. Weird...

    Question: Does this look right?

    New power steering cylinder installed. This one just looks so much better. The color and hardware scream quality over what I was previously sent the first time. ;) Hopefully they resolve the issues with the first vendor.

    Question: Does this look right?

    Yes I do have this spacer installed. The correct cupped washers made a huge difference in spacing. The only nut that fits is the one that came with the cylinder.
