    Steering wheel hub bolt pattern

    I cancelled the steering wheel that came with my kit. I am looking to buy one I prefer more, what is the bolt pattern here called? What should I be looking for?

    Pretty sure its FFR specific. It is not a consistent bolt circle either.You may be able to drill the hub to match whatever you buy though.

    You might send a note to Russ Thompson, as he does custom machining on the steering wheel boss for his turn signal setup. He may be able to provide the specs and offer recommendations on what would fit.

    If you want a different wheel then you may want to install a Quick Disconnect like one of the types shown below since they have multiple patterns:

    Also, check out this earlier forum thread if you want to see other solutions:

    You just need to have the wheel spline Tig Welded to the 3/4" shaft.
