Hey John,
Have you lubed the steering up on the 1811? Besides the grease zerks, I pull the steering wheel and dump a lot of PTFE fortified lubricant down the tube and put a little moly graphite on the top bushing. I find the 1811 steers pretty easy once you lube it up GOOD!
BTW: I always lube chassis joints with them unloaded - that is - I jack the front end up for lubing.
