Question Steering wheel help?

Okay so the other day I took the steering wheel off (after market GT wheel) because it had been mounted crooked and was just bothering me. So after i got it all put back together it just feels way to right. Like it should turn with more ease. So is there a certain torque to use when tightening the center or 3 other bolts? I am completely lost here. I even took it off and tried again and even played with bolt tightness, and still nothing. Turned fine before that. HELP!

Re: Steering wheel help?

there is a little spacer that fits under the hub thats only about 1/8 or 1/4 of inch it looks like a quarter with the center punched out. i forgot to put it on mine and the black cover that is under the steering wheel would rub the steering column making it difficult to turn.
