Personal Steering Wheel - help

[rev-erend]

Hi All

I was chuffed to bits to win the auction to win the Personal Steering Wheel at BBWF but when I tried to fit it to my steering wheel boss - the size / bolt pattern is slightly different to the Momo wheel that I have currently fitted.

Does anyone have a Personal wheel boss they would be willing to part with for beer tokens.

Hi Alan.


Thats unfortunate mate, I will ask the guy who donated it...I have a boss for the 280i but i doubt if it will be any good...Even if the bolt holes line up the actual column probably won't...

You mean like this:



I took it off the 400 years ago when I fitted the Momo wheel which I prefer, so had to buy a new boss for the Momo. Never got around to selling the wheel/boss.

Might be able to split them. Rev, PM me if interested.

Thanks Paul...I was unable to sort one from my end....

That also looks just like the old Mountney style boss/wheel, but can't tell from photo if it would be the right size (i.e. bolt spacing)..

Happy to measure mine (Mountney) if it helps - I suggest you measure wheel hole spacing diameter and post here.

Some dimensions:

Depth of Boss : 88mm
Personal steering wheel centre 60mm
6 sided slot for steering column 15mm

My column controls are Ford.

Sorry about that .. bl88dy cameras on phones are not the best.

[adam quantrill]

No problem at all - it allowed me to get a pun in ;^)

Rev, done some measuring of mine:

boss depth - 84.25mm
steering wheel boss mounting hole diameter - 60mm
PCD - 74mm

The boss has Ford stamped on it.

Sounds like it will fit.

Hi All

Just thought I would post up the results of my steering wheel refurbishment by Royal steering wheels :
Personal wheel before changes



Wheel after retrim in Alcantara:

Well that's just convinced me to send them my wheel. Am I right in thinking they can make it a bit thicker too? (Ooh err missus)

[rev-erend]

Dunno .. think mine was thick before it was refurbished.
