GMC Denali 4 wheel steer?

[Garandman]

Saw online that GM charged anywhere from $1,000 to $5,600 for the privilege.

I own one and have had it 7 years and love it. I can turn it around in less room that it takes to turn around a compact car.

Jan 18, 2002 - GMC says Quadrasteer cuts Denali's turning-circle diameter to 37.4 feet from 46.2 feet. GMC likes to note that the small Saturn coupe circles in 37.1 feet. Q-steer is mighty helpful while: Parking.

There are plenty of current compacts that are 30-35 feet.

It's also my understanding that you can "crab" steer at low speeds if you want. Hold the brake and the gas at the same times while turning wheel. For example, if you wanted to swing the back of the truck out to one side or another leaving a tight campsite.

I have heard too many negatives concerning alignment. For what little it does and the extra cost and maintaince I would pass.

Parts like the rear unit hub assembly have been discontinued with zero aftermarket support.

I second Chris.

Thanks. I passed that link along to a poster on GMI with a laid up quadrasteer truck.

AMG Hummer H1s and HUMVEEs have been converted over to 4WS by a few people.
