Dean, is there a good way to know when the wheel is centered? After I disconnected the steering input from the rack the wheel might have spun around 360 degrees one way or another. Is looking at the clock spring the only way?
Shouldn't matter if the steering wheel spun.
Yeah? No clock spring to get overwound when maxing a left or right turn? I admittedly haven't taken it apart to see how it all works.
You might eventually run out of turns but dang...you might be 1 turn off either way? Unless your kid gets in and starts playing with it.
