That's what mine looks like now, except for the dirt, scratches and
stainless steel. The one you posted before has a suspension lift.

If my wife was going to be driving it, and the steering was unsafe, you can bet
I wouldn't be here asking stupid ------- questions.
If I didn't have the knowledge and ability to fix it, somebody who did would
have already fixed it, and been paid for it.
It's one thing to send your wife out to kill herself in it. The problem is,
she'd likely take somebody else with her. Possibly somebody I care about.
Not acceptable.
