Sure you can, turn one tie rod one way and the other tie rod the exact same amount the opposite way, provided it was already in alignment it will still be.
I guess. Just annoying work when it tracks straight when I take my hands off the wheel, it's just cocked a bit.

Centering the steering wheel can be done inside the cab with a steering shaft alignment tool. Install tool and make the correction in less than 5 minutes.

Steering column is two piece unit and joined with a knuckle. Loosen the knuckle and tweak the steering wheel in the appropriate direction to level as required.

This is exactly how the dealership service does it. No big deal and no messing around with wheel alignment.??

Damn, doing wheel alignments for almost 40 years and now I find out I've been doing it wrong:crazy:

Can the heated steering wheel be added to a vehicle that didnt come with it with this wheel? I'd be interested in it if its not to much work or preferably plug and play. I have FORSCAN wondering if thats an option to turn it on if they are all wired for that just not installed through factory option.

Is the on/off switch on the wheel or on the dash from factory?

The switch is in the infotainment screen, I am not sure if the wiring is there or not but it would be pretty awesome if you could add it! If you take the steering wheel off there will be a separate plug for the heating elements at the bottom of the wheel. I can get a pic of the plug if that would help

I came across more steering wheel options for anyone interested @ IndiCarbon. Full wheel and just center trim. Lots of other bits too including fenders. Good to have more options.
