Problem rigging Tri-Gear steering

[dcazier]

I have rigged my rudder cables per the plans and have just completed installing the tri-gear engine mount for an AeroVee turbo engine. There is a pushrod from the rudder pedals that goes through the firewall and attaches to the steering fork for the nose wheel. According to the plans, you adjust the length of the pushrod such that it fits with the rudder pedals in the neutral position and the nosewheel fork centered. After adjusting and installing the pushrod, I pushed on the rudder pedals to confirm that the tail rudder still goes from stop to stop and that the nosewheel turns from stop to stop. When pushing full right rudder, the tail rudder indeed goes to the stop and the nosewheel turns right to the stop. However, when I then push full left rudder, the tail rudder goes to the stop, but the nosewheel only centers itself (does not turn to the left). I must have done something wrong, but I have checked the rigging numerous times and can't understand why the nosewheel will not turn to the left. Has anyone else had this issue? Any suggestions on where I might have gone wrong?
