Fucked something up

opps, didn't mean to type try rod

[Mighty Quine]

for example: wtf is a tryrod

[Mighty Quine]

i think a tryrod is what dickerman has in his jeep

[wannabejeep]

if something hit the tryrod while he was wheeling it could've bent the tryrod and made it shorter, which then will pull the toe of the tire(front of tire) inward causing the "Death Shake"

Ain't no such thing as "death shake" Only death wobble.

oh i forgot to mention that at one point today my steering wheel was turned from vertical to horizontal and my wheels didnt move. so i'm thinking the problem is my steering box? any suggestions?

I do not think the steering box is the problem. Sounds like something bent, you can do a rough check of the toe with a tape measure. Measure the distance between the front tires at the front of the tires and then at the back of the front tires. These distances should be the same maybe a little less in the front but not much. If you are not sure bring it to an alignment shop.

I also don't think it is the column having play. The column is not rotating faster as you increase driving speed. The play in the column will probably amplify any vibration from the tires to your hand on the steering wheel. Good luck
