I have a 3/4 ton 84 Sierra and was wondering if there is a way to get tighter turning on it? I know these long beds don't turn on a dime, but I'd like to be able to get into straight in parking spots easier than a 3 point turn. Is there a way of doing this?

If it's a C20, sell it and buy a K20.

Otherwise, the usual.

Check all the steering components for correct assembly, alignment and proper travel.

Borgeson as Gilmore suggested. I'm likely to get a Borgeson or Red Head. Red Head is about a ten minute drive from us.
