Ok! I've searched all over the place and my friends and I are all stumped.

I got my steering wheel installed for the past couple of months and I gotta say there's not much problems with it other than the fact that it squeaks REALLY LOUD when I turn it. At first, I was ok with it, but then it's starting to bug me more and more. At first I thought something was rubbing in the back, but after it took everything off and greased it up.. it still squeaks. Has anyone experienced this prior and/or has a solution?

I mean.. did i tighten the nut a little too hard? cuz the steering wheel is sorta tight, but if i don't tighten it, then i'm worried that it'll be too loose.

Sigh~ I'm so confused...

Mine started squeaking like yours right after i got off a gravel road. I'm unsure of the cause too.

well, i don't see why if the stock steering wheel didn't squeak, the aftermarket one would go nuts...

nobody had a solution?

take off the plastic ignition surround..still there?

Or remove the wheel and look for signs that the hub is rubbing the face of the surround.
My Grant hub did make contact and squeaked like you describe.

i took off the surrounds already, still squeaks.

i tried loosening the hub, and that helped.... but i don't wanna drive around with a loose hub/steering wheel.

an incorrect aftermarket hub will crush the turnsignal cancel switch and cause a tightness/ rubbing sound in addition to the sound from the ignition surround plastic

i found this out the hard way i broke the signal cancel switch

hey, do you have the right hub for your car? maybe that might be the problem. I bought a sparco hub and is crap damnit, it makes the steering too tight and stick to the back lol
