    So I just finished charging a bunch of suspension and steering parts on my 2nd gen. Took it to get aligned and then I locked the wheel all the way to make a 3 point turn. Then my steering wheel is off again. I’m taking it back to get fixed but does anybody know why this happened?

    Inspect the camber / caser tabs to make sure they are in good shape and don't allow the cams to move. They often times get bent from offroading or from a bad alignment tech kranking on them too hard and will not hold an alignment then. A change in your camber can effect your toe and where the steering wheel sits then.

    they are not cranked too hard. They are made out of tinfoil unlike any other car. Any other car does not have this problem.
