Steering wheel alignment

How do I align my steering wheel with my outdrives?

Steering wheel has a woodruff key, so I dont think I can just pull the steering wheel and re-center it.

Thanks.

For full hydraulic steering it is best to have a symmetrical spoke steering wheel.

The hub should have the key and the actual wheel most likely just screws to the hub. Remove the wheel and rotate it on the hub if this is the case.

But, if you have hydraulic steering, it's kinda pointless. The wheel will never stay in the same position. That's why it's best to have a symmetrical wheel.
