Re: cant get it straight

To adjust the steering wheel, you need to adjust your outter tie-end rods, depending on which side your steering is off 11 o'clock or 1 o'clock. To adjust it for lets say, 11 o'clock you would move it "in" so many turns on the drivers side outter tie-end rod then do the same amount of turns going "out" on the passenger side tie-end rod. Also make sure you watch the steering wheel so it doesn't move on ya.

Re: cant get it straight

a good alignment shop should be able to do that, where did you take it?
the guy probably just told you he couldnt do it because he didnt want to

Re: cant get it straight

The guy probably forgot to straighten the steering wheel in the beginning and then said he wasn't able to do it..

That's why I will always do this type of stuff myself. I can do free alignments in my high school. Free wheel balancing, etc etc.

Re: cant get it straight

agreed with previous statement, sounds like you need to adjust tie-rods and a decent shop should be able to do this
