power steering problem - Click HERE for Original Thread

robyn402
hey guys i just finished doing my big swap;
-Evo 9 steering column shaft,
-evo 9 steering wheel w/ airbag
-2 stage air bag gas generator from the lancer airbag into the evo 9 airbag

all transplanted into my lancer

and its kinda working and in thoery should maintian my SRS system

once i'm back in town next week i'll be gettin the car scanned to reset the airbags and see if it actually turns the SRS light off, as well i'll be re installing my cruise control lever


HERES THE PROBLEM


now that i've swapped the evo shaft into my lancer column sleeve the steering is kinda stiff

its not quite like strong arm steering but its not loose like my lancer was...

the wheel also doesn't automatically return to the centered position and doesn't have the springy really easy to turn feel anymore

i'm going to pull the whole thing out and try it again next week, maybe i missed something or its binding for whatever reason

suggestions and speculations welcome...

problem sovled, turns out the shaft is a touch bigger in one spot where a bearing sits, so i just adjusted and its fine now...

mod can delete if they want
