FAQs

What is the primary benefit of using a steering wheel boss spacer?

The primary benefit is to adjust the position of the steering wheel, bringing it closer to the driver for improved ergonomics, comfort, and control, especially after changing seats or using different sized steering wheels.

What PCD patterns does this 60mm spacer support?

This 60mm spacer supports both 6 x 70mm PCD and 6 x 74mm PCD patterns, offering broad compatibility with many popular steering wheels and boss kits.

Can I fit a 70mm PCD steering wheel onto a 74mm PCD boss kit with this spacer?

Yes, for this 60mm spacer, you can fit a 6 x 70mm PCD steering wheel to a 6 x 74mm PCD boss kit, and vice versa, due to its multi-drilled design.

What is included in the package?

The package includes the 60mm steering wheel boss spacer, installation bolts, and a wrench for installation.

Is this spacer compatible with airbags?

This product is a spacer for the steering wheel boss and does not directly interact with or support the vehicle's airbag system. If your vehicle has an airbag steering wheel, ensure that any airbag components are safely managed and that the final installation complies with all safety regulations and practices. Professional installation may be recommended.

How do I clean the steering wheel boss spacer?

Clean the spacer with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the billet alloy finish.

What is the main difference between the 60mm spacer and shorter versions regarding compatibility?

While the 60mm version offers flexibility in mixing PCD patterns (70mm to 74mm and vice versa), the 10mm and 20mm versions require the steering wheel PCD and boss kit PCD to match exactly.

Troubleshooting

Spacer does not align with boss kit holes

Verify the PCD pattern of your existing boss kit. Ensure it matches one of the compatible patterns (6x70mm or 6x74mm) for this 60mm spacer. Check for any debris obstructing the bolt holes.

Bolts do not thread properly

Ensure you are using the correct bolts provided and that they are aligned straight with the threaded holes. Do not force bolts; if resistance is met, back them out and try again.

Steering wheel feels loose after installation

Double-check that all bolts securing the spacer to the boss kit and the steering wheel to the spacer are fully tightened according to manufacturer specifications for steering components.

Horn or other steering wheel functions do not work

This is typically related to the steering wheel's wiring. Ensure all connections for the horn, airbag (if applicable and safely handled), and other controls are correctly made within the steering wheel hub assembly.

Pros

  • Significantly improves driving ergonomics by allowing precise steering wheel positioning.
  • Robust construction ensures durability and longevity.
  • Wide compatibility with various popular steering wheel and boss kit PCD standards.

Cons

  • Specific PCD combinations must match for 10mm and 20mm versions (though this is a 60mm version, it's a general product con).
  • May require additional modifications or checks for certain vehicle setups.
  • Adds an extra component to the steering column, potentially altering feel slightly for purists.
  • Not suitable for all vehicle types or steering wheel configurations.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure your vehicle is equipped with a compatible steering wheel boss kit.
  2. Align the B-G Racing Steering Wheel Boss Spacer with the bolt holes on your existing boss kit.
  3. Use the provided bolts to secure the spacer to the boss kit. Tighten evenly.
  4. Mount your steering wheel to the corresponding PCD pattern on the spacer.
  5. Secure the steering wheel with its retaining bolts and install any center caps or horns.

Compatibility:

  • This 60mm spacer is compatible with both 6 x 70mm PCD (e.g., Momo, Sparco, OMP) and 6 x 74mm PCD (e.g., Nardi, Personal) steering wheels and bosses.
  • It facilitates fitting a 6 x 70mm PCD wheel to a 6 x 74mm boss, and vice versa.
  • *Note: For 10mm and 20mm versions of this product, PCDs must match between wheel and boss.* Always verify your existing boss kit's PCD and your steering wheel's PCD before purchase.

Care:

  • Clean the spacer using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the billet alloy finish.
  • Periodically check all bolts for tightness, especially after initial installation and after hard driving sessions.
