GL/GLL Steering Wheels

05-28-2010, 01:31 PM

So I did the swap from GLL to GL steering wheel several months back. I much prefer the cleaner look for the three spoke.

However, the GL wheel I have seems to be centered differently. Everything in my front end is fresh so the car drives straight as an arrow and the GLL wheel is centered perfectly. With the GL wheel, the wheel is cocked just slightly clockwise. No matter what way I install it, its off center either way.

What's the deal here?

Well, one of the t-tops wasn't latched real well… God only knows where that t-top flew off to at 150+ mph. Didn't scratch the car or anything, just a boom and it was gone. I sure as hell didn't stop to see where it went. I didn't see any stories on the news… so that's a plus.

turn the drivers side tie rod out and the passenger side in in 1/4 turn increments til it is straight

if you dont do them in equal proportions you can cause tire wear assuming your car was recently aligned. you can also do a string alignment yourself
