OMG, another new owner/noob/FNG

[tmoble]

So I already am doing a bare frame rebuild of my 57 SSSBBW when this 83 c15 falls into my lap. It's a pretty nice AZ truck, no rust to speak of. has a nicely swapped in 350, runs good. I think I'm the 3rd owner of this truck, it's clean unmolested. Under the hood is almost museum grade except for the stupid Eddie/Carter carb that going away soon.

Anyway, I have a lot of background with Chevy Trucks and can fix almost anything on it including engine, trans, rear axle, front end, AC, etc, etc.

The main thing that's keeping me from adopting it is the turning radius. it's a PITA in parking lots and driveways. Is there a way to fix this? I'm not talking about the ratio in the box, I can fix that anyway. Faster ratio box doesn't help this that I know of.

Anybody on here know what the problem or fix is? steering stops in the box? spindle stops on the LCA? goofed linkage from GM?

I'm used to the 70-81 Camaro stub, which does everything good.
