FAQs
Can I use this adaptor with my original factory steering wheel?
No, this adaptor is designed specifically for most aftermarket steering wheels and requires a compatible aftermarket steering wheel boss kit.
Will this work on a car with airbags?
No. Replacing a steering wheel on a vehicle with airbags will disable the airbag system. This adaptor should only be used on vehicles with airbags for racing or show purposes where airbag functionality is not required or has been addressed.
How do I remove the steering wheel?
To remove the steering wheel, press the push pin mechanism on the adaptor and simultaneously pull the steering wheel away from the adaptor base.
How do I reattach the steering wheel?
Align the steering wheel with the splines on the adaptor base and push it firmly into place until it clicks or is fully seated. Ensure the push pin engages to lock the wheel securely.
What material is the adaptor made from?
The adaptor is constructed from the highest quality aluminum for maximum durability and usability.
What does PCD mean in relation to steering wheels?
PCD stands for Pitch Circle Diameter, which is the diameter of the circle on which the bolt holes of the steering wheel or boss kit are equally spaced. Common PCDs for aftermarket wheels and boss kits are 70mm and 74mm.
Is this considered a security device?
Yes, by allowing the complete removal of the steering wheel when the vehicle is unattended, it serves as an effective anti-theft solution.
Troubleshooting
Steering wheel is loose after installation.
Ensure all bolts connecting the adaptor to the boss kit, and the steering wheel to the adaptor, are fully tightened to the manufacturer's specifications. Verify the steering wheel is correctly seated on the adaptor splines.
Quick release mechanism is stiff or difficult to operate.
Check for any debris or obstructions around the push pin and locking collar. Apply a small amount of dry lubricant (e.g., graphite-based) to the moving parts. Ensure the steering wheel is fully engaged with the adaptor to allow the push pin to retract fully.
Adaptor does not fit the boss kit or steering wheel.
Double-check the PCD (Pitch Circle Diameter) measurements of both your boss kit and steering wheel against the adaptor's specifications (6x70mm or 6x74mm). Ensure you have the correct adaptor version for your components.
