I recently moved my whole steering column about 1 1/2 inches left, to better center it on the driver and to better see the gauges. Now I'm a bit concerned about distortion on the rubber/fabric disc thing that connects the main column to the steering box input shaft. Does the disc have to be run perfectly flat? Yes, that would be ideal, but how far off is too far? I've heard they can self destruct in only a few miles. Anybody got data? I really like the new position of the steering wheel, but the whole thing is reversable if necessary. Further info, I have 2 1/2 inch spacers on the front sheels and 205/50 x 16 rubber.
