Default Steeeing box noise after ram install
Anyone had a similar noise? The loud noise you hear in this video only happens when the steering is in the center position. While turning the wheel it goes away. The video is me turning the wheel slightly back and forth.

steering noise

Did you Port the box yourself? When you did did you clean out all the metal debris from drilling? The right way is to have all the internals out of the box when drilling so all the shavings can be flushed out thoroughly.

Yeah... mine doesn't sound like it. I'm sure Matt will get back to you, he's a great guy.
