I installed a Momo 8002 hub with the horn/directional turn off ring from my OEM steering wheel. Either due to the ring fitment or cast of the hub, turning the wheel creates a rubbing against the column controls. So sometimes the horn would go off or my high beams would flash. I've sorted some of this out with electrical tape or bending contact plates to avoid the inadvertent contact. I think a better solution, though, would be to space the hub out just a little.
My question is whether the hub actually rests against the C'clip on the steering shaft, so I could insert a washer or two to space out the hub, or is the shaft and hub a tapered fit? Any thoughts or suggestions? Thank you, as always, to the amazing wealth of knowledge on the Board!! |

QUOTE(rruffer @ Aug 20 2016, 05:06 AM)  I think a better solution, though, would be to space the hub out just a little. SMART Racing products 911 momo hub spacer is what you need it also solves the amusing problem of flipping on the wipers during autocross it does not appear in their store anymore, so it might take some searchin on ebay for a similar piece or maybe one of us will go into production? .  |
