        <p class="MsoNormal">I have a BT7 with a curious steering wheel
          (?) issue.</p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">When restoring the car, I discovered the
          steering column had been slightly bent.</p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">The column has been straightened. 
          Otherwise, the internals in the box are the same (i.e.,
          bushings, peg, etc.).  The column appears to be ok now
          including the splines that secure the steering wheel.</p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">The idler has been rebuilt as has the
          suspension and all components of the cross rod steering
          system.</p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">The car has been aligned.</p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">I set the steering wheel so that one of the
          spokes was vertical when the wheels are straight ahead. 
          Worked fine for a while.</p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">But recently, the steering wheel has
          rotated counterclockwise about 45 degrees with the wheels
          straight ahead.</p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">This is the second time this has happened.</p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">There was very little rotational play in
          the steering wheel (an inch or 2) prior to the mysterious 45
          degree rotation; this amount of rotation has not changed.</p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">Any and all ideas are appreciated.</p>
