Colin Lindsay Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 Anyone know of any other models in the Triumph range that used the same size of steering wheel fitment as a Herald - I mean the diameter of the steering column where the wheel screws on? I'm experimenting with steering wheels at present but need a few bosses to mangle / adapt and whilst there are a few for sale online I might have other options if I can widen the search, especially those models where the wheel was screwed onto the boss and not a one-piece unit, but it needs to be a straight fit to my existing column. I can adapt the profile and trim a boss if necessary but can't change the basic fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 all spitfires apart from late 1500 (when the cowl changed), GT6 and vitesse TR's (not TR7) Probably others.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trigolf Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 I think the first Lotus Elan used the Triumph column. Probably be twice the price if the word Lotus is mentioned!😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are quite a few Lotus with a very recognisable column, I was looking at photos quite recently but as you say once you mention the 'L' word the price rockets.

PeteH Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 The Herald, fitment went straight on to my PAS unit, using the existing boss?. Mot-Lita.? (in the "experimental" phase). Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahebron Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 I believe a Bond Bug has the same splines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josef Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 I had a Moto Lita boss with Herald/Spitfire matching splines, but nowhere for a horn push, that I eventually figured out was intended for a Vauxhall Chevette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
