If you've ever taken your steering column out you probably noticed two (very heavy) steel spacers on the top mount. Centre in photo.
In my "handy tat" box I found two (four actually) alluminium fuel pump drive dogs from an industrial oil burner, the sort of thing everyone has lying around. left in photo
Five minutes with a hacksaw and file and I had a pair of super lightweight spacers. Right in photo
Iknow, I need to get out more

No point in me making aluminium spacers all the while I eat so much!! I was only thinking the other day that when I get in my car the weight goes up by a greater order of magnitude than I'd like!!
All the more reason Martin! You need to add as much lightness as possible. Try eating lots more light snacks.

That's why I drive with my shirt off with the roof down - Reduced weight! And I also no longer wear my mid-calf length white socks with my open toe sandals as I figured that was extra weight too!!
I find that 15 denier nylons are a lot lighter than calf length socks, and I have also swapped my open toed sandals for pink fluffy mules. Gassing Station | S Series | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
