Steering wheel

Cableguy Greg

My steering wheel is 180* off. How do you remove it to flip it? I can't get the center nut off, unless it's reverse threaded. I can't get any of the Allen screws that surround the center nut loose either. I just want to flip the wheel.

to go 180 your going to have to get the screws out, the hub has a keyway

@Cableguy Greg just checked the rack in my basement the bolt is right tight,and left loose but there is a key way to clock the wheel.so it must be the Allen Head bolts.I as well I'm of 180° and now with 2 motors I'm trying not to turn wheel but it needs to be straight frist.

I have the same wheel and I can't get the allen screws to budge.

I thought those were fake, and you remove center cap, then big nut.???

@Liberty44140, I was using Allen keys that are the angle ones and they wouldn't completely seat in the screw. I used a traditional Allen key and poof, I got them all out and the steering wheel is flipped. Win for me!!!

So are mine, but the set that I was using have the little ball at the end so you don't have to be 100% straight on to the screw. Unfortunately it wasn't giving the key enough grip.

Ahh, I see. Now that makes sense
