B16 Swap Steering Lock Problem

[CaptainJochem]

Hello all, and a very good morning,

I recently swapped a B16A2 from a Del Sol into my EG Coupe and everything fit perfectly, only now I have a problem with the driver's side (left side) control arm and my steering locked, even when I try to turn the key. The other control arm ligned up perfectly, but the driver's side does not and it is puzzling me. When I try to lign up the upper control arm if feels as if something is stuck...? That and now my steering wheel is locked and does not want to free up even when I turn the key. It's all very strange.

Any suggestions? Much appreciated!

What kind of axles did you use? Did they go in all the way?

Yes, they did go in all the way. However, I fixed the problem. Turned out that really moving the steering wheel from left to right many times while simultaneously turning the key got it unstuck in the end. Now I have another problem, but will post this in a new thread. Thanks for your replies guys! Much appreciated as always.
