adjusting steering wheel

[peterwolds]

new exhaust fitted was hitting steering rack sorted out but steering wheel is now a few degrees out of straight wheen wheels are parallel - can it be adjusted on the splines ?

It could be Pete if its exactly one spline out which is\'nt that likely. Best bet is get the alignment reset properly.

Yep, see the alignment (money well spent) thread and get it done properly

Hang on. The exhaust must be some funky shape if it\'s hitting the actual steering rack! My guess is they\'ve put the connecting rod from the column to the rack one or two splines out after refitting your downpipe.

booked in for geometry set up sort steering wheel out using below settings for alignment

Left Front camber: 0"51\' -> -0"39\'
Right Front camber: -0"39\' -> 0"51\'
Left Front toe: -0"05\' -> 0"11\'
Right Front toe: 0"11\' -> -0"05\'
Total Front toe: -0"10\' -> 0"22\'
Steer ahead: -0"03\' -> 0"03
Left Rear Camber: -0"28\' -> -1"58\'
Right Rear Camber: -1"58\' -> -0"28\'
Left Rear Toe: -0"05\' -> 0"11\'
Right Rear Toe: 0"11\' -> -0"05\'
Total Rear Toe: -0"10\' -> 0"22\'
Thrust Angle: -0"06\' -> 0"06\'
