RE: IML: 1967 Imperial Steering

["Ken Lang" <ken@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Anthony,

If I'm not mistaken the steering wheel will only fit one way on the steering
column shaft.  It is a spline fit but there are 1 or 2 master splines that
force the wheel to always be in the same position.  The shop that performed
the alignment needs to adjust the tie-rod ends to center the wheel.

I've not had mine apart but I know Dick Benjamin has and he will probably
chime in on this one.

>Hi;


I just had a pitman arm and tie rod end with front end alignment  on my 67 
Imperial.  My question is this. My steering wheels two main spokes are 
pointed straight up, north and south. When I called the garage they told me 
that there is no adjustment to correct it other than removing the steering 
wheel and putting it back the way I want it, which is straight east and
west.

Does that sound correct.


Anthony
