The proper way to adjust your center is , Get both wheels off of the
ground. Then you turn your steering wheel from the Left then back to the
right. Then to find top center you should feel a little tightness of the
steering right at center. That is called your High Point. That is where
you have your steering box centered. Every thing else is set to that
point. If you don’t feel that High point , Loosen up your steering
box adjustment screw and adjust that. Barely turn the adjustment in and
turn your steering wheel back and forth a small amount until you feel that high
point. Then lock the adjustment screw lock down.
Now all your other adjustments are set from there.

Subject: RE: [Chrysler300] Steering wheel
centering I doubt 90
degrees is tie rod..but anything is possible..that is a lot off. sounds like
some part of column or attachment of pitman arm was assembled incorrectly? What
was done, and why? From:
Chrysler300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:Chrysler300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of
Ryan Hill ryan_hillc300@xxxxxxxxxxx [Chrysler300] My
recollection is that the wheel, steering box, shaft and idler are all indexed. I
assume it was centered prior to disassembly and new parts installed? The only
adjustment should be at the tie rods. Are they evenly adjusted? My suspicion is
they aren't…. What to tell the dealer? If it is
the tie rod adjusters that aren't centred, I would ask for my money back and
head to someone who understands basics mechanics. To: chrysler300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Had new
parts installed on 1966 300 and dealer can not center steering wheel. It
is off 90 degrees!!! Isn't this a simple fix? You can not just
recenter the wheel as it is indexed. What do I tell the
dealer? Larry W
