Welcome aboard Dan.

It would be helpful to know what year and model you have. Have you tried disconnecting the steering cable at the back where it attaches to the steering arm to see if the wheel/ cable is still stiff to verify it is the cable. I’ve seen stiff steering due to low fluid in the pump.
