My Levin's steering wheel is a little bit "heavy".. This is because of my TRD suspension? :rolleyes:

A good start is to drain and replace you pwr steering fluid, its just dot4 ATF (cheap)

Also check there is no vacume hoses loose below the quads, there is two vacume lines that go onto the rack, does your engine idle normal?

depends on how you define heavy i guess, the steering isn't exactly ultra light in my car, but it feels firm and has really good feedback. heavier than some other makes and models of cars i've driven though.
