Steering Lock

<< < (2/3) > >>

You have to lock the steering, or the wheel will rotate when setting the toe.. I've found the string technique to be very  inaccurate so I went to one of the lasers..I just haven't seen a steering lock available... Might have to attach a pin lock to the column.

Darin,

A pin lock is what is used on a lot of the karts.
Still curious if this is a legal addition to the Bando cars?

2 vice grips on the steering shaft behind the heim joint at the steering wheel.

justfreaky:
Cheap and easy solution.
Thanks Mike!

The only time I have seen the string not be accurate was if we had too much body or bumper damage so the strings wouldn't run straight down the sides, but in those cases we were just tying to get it close enough to salvage some seat time for the feature so we weren't too worried about it.

I guess I am not really understanding the challenge you are having though because I have never had the wheel turn while the car is sitting on the ground still and I am trying to set the tow.
