Woody2000 Posted November 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 just Seen one on eBay so I think it might bolt straight into the boss just need someone to confirm thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Lewis Posted November 8, 2021 Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 the std wheels across the range are all one piece its the after market Springalex/Mountey/Moto-lita etc that need a separate centre boss Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woody2000 Posted November 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 Can I just unbolt the steering wheel and swop it for another thicker one as the spindle on my car is thinner than the wheel I want to swop it for they are both 2.5 steering wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Lewis Posted November 8, 2021 Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 no the shaft abd splines must match unsure but was a mk1 shaft different to a mk2 ??? the nut is the same but the taper and spline diameters may vary between the two model /years Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thescrapman Posted November 9, 2021 Report Share Posted November 9, 2021 ISTR the "posh" 2000 type wheels are held to the boss by 6 bolts. Just always swapped the whole wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
