Default G2 steering

My steering wheel no longer sits properly. How do I get it to straighten up and sit lower so it will not wobble all over the place.

I teied taking it off, no luck and I tried tightening it. Also tried pounding it down with a hammer
Can anyone help.

You can buy an Adapter-hub thru our site-sponsors to put any 3-bolt car-wheel on a cart.

Looks like the upper bearing or bushing is gone. Will have to get the old wheel off and see what's bellow.

Loosen the steering wheel nut so it is only on by a couple of threads. Put your knees behind the steering wheel and put your feet on the dash for leverage. Apply some heavy force on the back of the steering wheel with your knees and then give the steering wheel nut a couple really hard hits with a hammer. It should just pop right off. If you're worried about messing up the nut, put a piece of hardwood on it, then hit the hardwood.

It takes alot of force with the knees sometimes. Use very quick, hard hits with the hammer. It should only take one or two hits. If not, use more knee force.

You should try having to pay for a supercharger upgrade!

You may want to try to get the wheel off before the adapter shows up. You can always put it back on.
