Steering wheel removal
I just recently purchased a 95 club car ds. A previous owner added a lift kit and new tie rods. The problem is the steering wheel is way off center by about 90°. I have tried everything to get the wheel off to re recenter it. I bolted a plate across it and ran a bolt down to the steering wheel mounting bolt and ended up bending the plate till the center bolt pulled through the plate so I moved on to a piece of angle iron but the thing just wont break loose. I even hit the back of the steering wheel while it was in tension with the angle iron. Am I missing something? Is there a better way? Can I unbolt the steering column underneath and turn it till the wheel is right and reconnect it? Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks Mike |

Re: Steering wheel removal
Adjust it out with the tie rods. Probably only need about 1/8 turn on each one

Re: Steering wheel removal
Don't align it with the tie rods, adjust the drag link, much easier

Re: Steering wheel removal
Sorry for the rookie questions. This is all new to me. Never really messed with golf carts.

Re: Steering wheel removal
loosen the nuts holding the drag link tight, and give it a twist....youll watch the steering wheel move
