the rack is attached to the straight axle, movement happens to all components at the same time, everything moves, the 2002 Dodge trucks have a shaft that has 1 ujoint at the column, then where it attaches to the power rach it has a slip joint, bump steer happens when the steering system has a bind, because the geometry isn't in alignment, have you heard of 2002 Dodge Rams having bump steer? who is it that determines bump steer would be their, I see no steering or suspension engineers? who has actually put any of this in action? So their is no basis for why their is bump steer, instead its a phrase that pops up.

i own a 2003 RAM.

the suspension travels at the tie rod ends and bump is taken up at the tie rod ends and not at the column - THAT is why this comes up when the rack is mounted directly to the solid axle.

if you simply posted a pic of the shaft that takes up the bump of the axle you would have saved much dialog on this subject.
