Lately, gradually my steering has gotten awfully heavy. It started as a "heavy in spots" sort of feeling and felt like it does when you have the axle and TC engaged. Searching for the cause, I did find that my xfer vac switch was engaging the axle all the time, but I was only in 2 wheel. I've fixed that, but it's made no difference.

I've checked all the normal things, fluid, alignment air pressure etc. all are fine.

The steering is gradually getting heavier from end to end.

Any ideas?
TIA

Do you have a locker up front? My steering went to **** but my lock-right was broken. :bangnerd:

Nope, no locker, just stock 30.

I would guess the pump is going out? :puzzled:
