steering wheel alignment 2001 gu patrol

Tell them to go an learn how to do wheel alignments!!!

The steering wheel is adjusted at the time of the wheel alignment and can/should be done without removing the steering wheel otherwise the steering box will not be centered which is bad because the gears in it are not linear, it needs to be centered.

Steering wheel can be repositioned if it is slightly off centre.
You would not be qualified to dissasemble the air bag component but you can do it, it needs to be decommisioned first by removing the power to it and discharing the capacitor, all air bag circuitry is labelled yellow.
Take it to someone who knows what they are doing (wheel alignment wise).

My wheel alignment exspert says that he sets the steering wheel to straight and adjusts the wheels accordingly with the correct alignment and that you cannot alter the steering wheel due to centering as previously stated. So go back and get them to do it CORRECTLY.

Dodger and GUPatrol.
This is exactly how Owner Experts bleep off mechanics, wheel aligners and the like.
I've been under more GU patrols than the pair of you have had hot dinners. HL is dead RIGHT, there is NO (read NONE) adjustment on GU's except for a total toe bar that connects both front wheels.
The only exception is early GU I's that did not go back for the recall. The recall was to remove the adjustable bar which connects the pitman arm to the left hand steering knuckle, and replace it with a solid shaft. The same solid shaft fitted to GU's ever since.
Nissan's reason given was that over time the adjustment nuts became loose and then the bar could over time unwind and then disconnect causing loss of steering completely. So as there is only a total toe adjustment, any big enough adjustment will result in a crooked steering wheel. So as I said before HL is dead right.
Palmerson, please don't go in to the place to tell them they got it wrong, go in and ask the wheel aligner to show you where the adjustment was before nissan removed it, I am sure if he as been doing it long enough he will know.
I write this because there is not a mechanic or wheel aligner out there who is not tired of owner experts coming in telling them how to do their job on the say so of somebody’s brother, friend, neighbor, cousin, hairdresser, boyfriend, father or even forum buddy on a website.

Do you like being told how to do YOUR job?????
