S1 Steering column

Post by captain » Thu May 05, 2016 8:41 am

Anyone know how long the spline is? And does anyone have a pic of the back of an oem s1 wheel?

I have a plan afoot...

I'd have said it was a little longer from memory but can't beat the manual. :) Answer is it's pretty short. :thumbsup

This is a slightly later one but looks very similar if not the same.

Ahh cheers Iain.

I'm speaking to some very talented fabricators to find a way to mate an oem steering wheel to a quick-release kit...hopefully without spacing it out too much.

Anyone else interested?

If the standard back bits with the spline and indicator return become surplus to requirements during your project then I'm still interested in them. :thumbsup :D

Yeah should be fine, I think even the narrowest QR kit is going to space out the wheel too far so will be changing it :)
