ISSUE Some 2005-2007 F-Super Duty vehicles may exhibit steering wheel oscillation (back and forth motion), immediately following front or rear wheel impacts (i.e. pavement joints, frost heaves, rough roads, etc.). Steering wheel motion is typically in the range of ± 5 degrees, and typically dampens out in fewer than five oscillations. This condition occurs mostly on F-250/F-350 4X4 vehicles, and is more evident on trucks equipped with a gas engine. ACTION Refer to the following Service Procedure to minimize the steering wheel oscillations on impacts, however, there may be some remaining minor oscillation which would be considered normal. SERVICE PROCEDURE SUMMARY 1. Set tire pressure and road test vehicle to evaluate vehicle before proceeding with further repairs. If issue is resolved, do not proceed with the rest of this TSB. 2. If concern still exists, install a new steering damper (frame-mounted bracket and steering damper assembly on F-250/F-350 4X4 applications only). For F-250/F-350 4X2 and all F-450/F-550 applications, inspect damper for leaks and replace if necessary, torque steering and suspension fasteners per Workshop Manual (WSM). 3. If concern still exists, check front alignment and reduce front caster. 4. Replace redundant control steering wheel (if equipped and vehicle built prior to 10/8/2004). VEHICLE INSPECTION – TIRE PRESSURE 1. Set tire pressures as indicated on the vehicle label (located on driver’s door label). STEERING DAMPER INSPECTION/REPLACEMENT AND STEERING/SUSPENSION FASTENER TORQUE CHECK F-250/F-350 4X4 Applications: 1. Remove existing steering damper and frame attachment bracket. 2. Replace steering damper and frame mounting bracket with steering damper and frame bracket. 3. Attach steering damper to frame bracket and torque bolt to 76 lb-ft (103 N•m).
