Ok, so today I decided to play in the mud and after having some fun I fell into some deep ruts that someone with a lot bigger tires than I had made. Needless to say I bottomed out almost instantly and while trying to get out I was turing the front wheels back and forth looking for traction on the walls.

After getting yanked out by a Dodge Ram and washed the cow pattie smelling mud off my Jeep I noticed my steering wheel was no longer straight. :sad: The only thing that looked out of place is the steering bar going from the driver side to the pasenger side has a slight bend in it.

Can anyone tell me if this normally has a small bend in it or did I do it today? Any other suggestions on what I messed up?

Thanks for any help.

 

Straightening the steering wheel is pretty straightforward. See step 51.

I don't think the steering drag link supposed to be bent though Do you have a picture of which bar you're talking about? You'd probably get a better response from the members.

 

Here is what I am talking about.

 

Looks like mine...that bend is supposed to be there. You probably just need to straighten your steering adjustment.
