1993 Dodge Dakota, v6 156,000 miles, automatic, rear wheel drive.

I have noticed that compared to other cars I've driven, the turning radius on my dakota sucks! Has anyone done any mods or know of anything that would make the turning radius better? It's annoying driving it in a small area. I'm just looking for ideas

p.s. all the steering and suspension parts are good. They all are in good shape and it drives just fine.

Thanks, Steven

It's a truck, that's why its turning radius is worse than a car. 131 inch wheelbase on mine; my car has a 97 inch wheelbase.

Well no duh it's a truck. I'm not expecting it to turn better than a car but I figured there must've been someone who found a way to make it better. Apparently not so I'll just let it go then.

Are the '93's rack and pinion? My '00 QC turns pretty short for a truck.

Then you've got the best you can get. My '92 4WD is parallelogram steering.
