The car had an alignment just before I bought it but the steering wheel is a bit off center. What is the best way to move that back without messing anything else up?

The only other way, depending upon how close it is to being centered is to adjust the tie rod ends to center wheel. Take off 1/4 turn at a time and add 1/4 turn to the other side, depending upon which way the wheel needs to go.
Make the adjustment, take it for a ride and see what you have. The key is to make small adjustments until you get it centered exactly. Just had mine aligned and watched the guy center the wheel perfectly. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
