I removed my aftermarket steering wheel and have a MOMO and 8002 adapter on the way. I don't seem to have a circlip on my steering shaft....how important is it? I presume I must have lost it when I replaced the bearing last time. If needed, will the ones at the hardware store work? Thanks
Here is a picture (not mine...but close enoug) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-1615-1201744207.jpg) |

I put the clip back on and the wheel wouldn't go all the way down far enough so I am not using it.
Sorry I went back and saw where you must mean the clip that holds the bearing in. I also noticed that you are using a vw bearing sleeve. On my 75 the metal bearing sleeve wasn't tight enough to keep the shaft from wiggling so I had to use the nylon factory sleeve as it is thicker. |

Actually, I do have the bearing clip, it's the clip closest to the steering wheel itself I was referring to. My adapter arrived today but no directions in the box. However, there is a not in the box that says "Warning" "Do not install without reading the instruction manual" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) ...must be made in china. |
