How come this happened?

doolin · 01-07-2009, 11:08 PM

I put an 8" lift on my cc carryall and now I lost some of my right hand steering. I still am able to turn left sharp but not right. I have adjusted all alignment options and it still hasn't changed.

The lift is not installed correctly - you need to read the instructions to whatever lif you have and see where the steering adjustments are supposed to be...

It's not in the alignment, its in the steering gear. When you installed the lift the steering gear was not centered inbetween lock to lock. Take the tie rods loose from the steering gear, center the steering wheel in center from lock to lock, center the wheels, adjust the tie rods until they hook back up without moving the steering. DO NOT MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL to make it meet the tie rods, adjust the tie rods to meet the steering gear with the wheels straight.
