column shift

[bboystyles]

i was just curious if anyone knew if its possible to put a sports/racing steering wheel onto a column shift? and is it harder than a normal steering wheel?

cheers

Never seen a column shift in a VP, but i assume it will work exactly the same way a floor shift would in terms of a after market steering wheel. The boss kis is going to attach to where your original wheel bolts, so their shouldnt really be a problem. But will stand corrected. Also can you post some interior shots im interested to see what the column shift looks like.

must be a six seater is it a wagon? is it an ex taxi? I have seen a few column shifts most came out as taxi pack six seater wagons, some sedans

Can't see why it wouldn't work. Make sure the new wheel has a similar dish to your stock one.

i think he means how far the rim of the steering wheel comes out, so the steering wheel doesnt rub on the column shift?

I doubt you could find a steering wheel larger than a VN/VP one

Should be fine. i'm pretty sure the boss kit brings the sports wheel out move cause i member that the indicator was further away lol

Exactly. The wheel also needs to be far enough back that you don't accidentally grab the shifter when turning the wheel.
