Stiff Steering Wheel!help!!

[redbluez18]

i just got my used momo steering installed today at accesories shop. After the installation, i found out that the steering wheel is so "stiff" (like turning a lorry steering) compare to a stock 1. so i drive back to that accesories shop n tell the problem 2 the guy. then he said " is like that 1". i m still not comfortable the explaination he gave to me n that way i m here to ask sifu here what cause the steering wheel become "stiff" Tomorrow i might go for another accesories shop to get it done. Anway, i wanna know the problem.. btw.. my ride is honda civic so4. can any sifu here enlightened me? :X-:

how many inches was ur ori steering wheel n how many inches ur new momo steering..? i believe there's alot of difference, the new steering smaller ..

if its smaller size than the ori, then it's normal to feel "stiff" .. get used to it . becoz from big steering change to small steering the bla bla bla bla is different so bla bla blaa... mmm... in short, just get used to it. :_:

If its same size steering, then maybe u shud get it checked...

yah yah.... smaller steering need more torque to turn it... bigger steering use less torque....

if i m not mistaken.. the ori stock steering is 15 inches change to 14inches. the problem is the smaller (14 inches) is way too stiff compare to old 1. n even if turn left or right.. there will b those "tak!tak!" sound frm the bosskit and if i put a right signal while turning to right.. the signal just kennot automatically turn back to "neutral" like i used the stock steering. :retarded:

cheh

i know ur problem already

the stiffness is normal
last time i was using the original steering then change to one that is 2 inches smaller
i was also not used to the stiffness
after awhile, u will find that it is very nice to drive with the stiffness especially when cruising on the highway


about ur signal light just not bouncing back
it is because the idiot never install the bosskit properly
make sure your wheel is straight before installing the bosskit
and the bosskit has an arrow pointing up, make sure it is directly up
peace man

wah, where did u get ur steering installed ? Brother's?

yes u better get the "tak tak tak" sound rectified, juz go back to the shop and tell him about the sound. If he say "this one nothing wan" .. u tell him I have asked around ady n this problem is "something" , so plz get it done or i might have to tell ppl bout ur shop."

juz try it la .. be polite. but it is reli a problem la the "tak tak" sound , good luck!

It has got to be the smaller diametre. Unless they did something to the steering which is unlikely. Just be happy with the quicker response it will give you
