For those of you not using a stock steering wheel, how far does your aftermark wheel with spacer stick out from the dash? I have a Grant 13" and the spacer adds 5" to take the 6" or so that a stock wheel is away from the dash up to 11". Wondering if this is normal. Thanks. Michael

My after-market wheel is actually closer to the dash than the stock wheel. It is so close that I had to cut off the end of the wiper arm so my hand didn't inadvertently activate the wipers. I just went downstairs and measured it. The forward edge of the steering wheel is 2 1/4 inches from the top of the dash pad. I have no idea what brand of wheel I have. I bought it at a swap meet.
Now that I think about it. It may not be because its closer to the dash but I may have been hitting the wiper switch because the wheel has a considerably smaller diameter. Cheers, Elliot |
