Piqued My curiosity

Dont mean to hijack, I have stiff steering too. Which plug and where is this exactly.

Yup, these guys are the best. No fail on every item.

I have seen this before. Very hard to steer, but does not leak. I suggested to a local member here to replace the O-Ring. They didn't know how, so I did it for them. (good deal). When they drove home, they said that it steered like a new car and it was fun to drive again. I am not saying that it is the problem with yours, but it could be. It is very inexpensive to do and worth the gamble.

Tom - the only additive that I have seen that usually does the trick is: $$$
