    I have one of these trucks, just my honest two cents but with these older units approaching 2+ million miles you are bound to replace most of the cab steering and suspension parts. With a twenty year old truck all of these parts are bound to be worn down to the point of replacement. My steering issues was cured with a new heavy duty tie rod and three axle alignment. All in all less than a grand parts and labor. Good luck.

    I drive for a company that has several new international LTS boy have I got a joke for all of y'all the staring is s*** on every single one of them from 18,000 miles that I've driven in one to 78-ish on the others these things scare like dog s*** they feel like the road just takes it wherever it feels really loose even bobtail these things are dangerous it's like I'm getting blown around super top heavy swaying is awful the reason why I noticed this is because they also have freightliners they also have kenworths all newer than 2021 none of them have this issue I've driven about seven LTS ranging from 2022 to 2024 I'm very upset I hope I don't get stuck in one of these permanently
