How to fix misaligned steering rack?
Hi...2006 GTO owner here
I just finished my header install last night and it looks like we reconnected the steering rack incorrectly because the steering wheel is completely upside down when I drive straight. I know I have to go back in and disconnect the U-joint to fix this but I have no clue how to align everything properly. Anyone have any ideas? I was thinking I could put my steering wheel straight and lock it into place, then disconnect the joint, then move the wheels manually until they are straight as well. The problem is, I wont know if the steering wheel is centered or is actually turned a full revolution . Any tips/ideas?
