I'd check for Gremlins!

Haha I can picture that!!

I removed the steering damper and it is shot, has resistance when you move the shaft in and out but when you stop in any position you can move it rapidly back and forth with no resistance.

I ordered a Bilstein (seems to be the recommended brand) damper #24-026451 from ShocKWarehouse for $101.00 shipped. Everything else checks OK.

Thanks!
