[QUOTE="CRB357, post: 506825, member: 20904"] Yeah it’s a cable with a spring around it. It actually “looks” good. I have two screws that release the casings. One going in and one coming out. When I grab the cable coming out, hold it, turn wheel with other hand, there is no slack at the wheel. So I’m guessing the cable/spring has stretched. I ended up leaving about 4” more of the cable sticking out past helm, then tightened two bolts holding casing. Then I reset steering wheel to center. Went on test ride and it feels the same. Still has about 4-5” of free play. [/QUOTE]
