I’m not quite good at editing yet, I’ve played around. But this was honestly just quicker to throw it in the lathe. It would be different if I wanted to sell them but someone already sells the metal ones and I’m not taking buisness away from him, just helping out a bawc’er.

I'm surprised that someone even makes them. It can't come up very often can it?

Putting “3G” wheels on, or like the one coop has from an overseas Mitsubishi, it’s needed.

Coop your spacer worked like a champ! Installed and done! Looks stock.

I, also pretty sure I’d you just use those three holes to center it, you wouldn’t need the center part at all.

Yeah it started that I spent WAY to much on a steering wheel and then had to get this to make it right. Wasn’t happy.

Like a spacer? I used a washer and made a spacer. Still moved. Has to have the part around the shaft or pushes down and rubs. The clock spring moves.

Glad the part worked.

Nah the 3 posts that it centers on aren’t part of the clock spring. It may give some, but I don’t think it needs that center part. I know, because it started to separate on the part you made when I first tightened it down and didn’t have it perfectly centered

But it still works. Maybe it helps, but there’s no way that thin plastic on the center section would support like metal does. You should try it on yours. Print another without the center part and see if it works. Just make sure it’s fully seated on those 3 tiny posts.

I could but I made a huge spacer and it still moved on mine. Like 3 washers. It never. Ever. Stoped going down. I honestly think the shaft part stops the wheel as there is a 10* angle on those. We arnt talking about rubbing a lot, so a tiny spacer on the shaft fixes it.

Yeah I could see that being the case. Since the wheel is tapered on the inside it looked like.

I have no clue what this part is about yet. We'll see when I put the wheel in th Spyder.

If it’s your stealth, you will need it. If it’s your spyder the. I don’t think you do. It’s just a 1g thing as far as I’m aware.
