Hey guys, I'm new to the forum and wanted to ask a quick questions! I installed a 3" lift on my 07 Nissan Frontier Crew Cap 4x4 and now when I reach 65 mph I can't move my steering wheel more than like a Milimeter and I'm changing lanes! What do I need to eliminat the power assisted steering?
Thanks,
James

Wow.. That doesn't sound right.  What type of lift did you install?  Is it a spacer lift, coil-over, springs, etc? I have a 3 inch lift on my 07 4x4 CC and I did not notice any significant difference in steering as you are suggesting.  More body roll should be expected though.  Did you remove the sway bar, replace tie rods or anything else?  Have you done an alignment since the lift was installed? Unless the speed sensitive steering components have gotten mess up somehow, you should not need to adjust this.

no dont emiminate it bc if you disconect the solenoid on the side of the gear on your p/s rack it will default to hwy and itll be like you have no p/s.  it shouldent be that hard to move yoru wheel at hwy speds anyway. its a possability you have a problem somewhere eather in your rack or suspension.
