Title: Steering colum alignment
Post by: Madmerc on December 01, 2015, 02:08:03

Hi guys I have just noticed that my steering wheel is bent so I have replaced it with a second hand one until I find a new replace the for it but I  am curios to no whether the steering wheel is placed dead centre to the instruments

Look for a small "slash" mark on the end of the splined steering column shaft. It should be directly upward and aligned so the two spokes on the steering wheel are level.

Unless it's RHD, in which case the slash should be at the 6 o'clock position.
