Steering wheel

[armylifer]

Have you considered cutting the splined end off steering shaft and welding in a length of rod to lengthen the whole shaft. That would move your steering wheel as close as you'd like without having to match any splines or get a new wheel.

I would not recommend cutting the steering wheel shaft. That would be begging for it to break and result in instant catastrophe. Don't do it!

If you weld like I do, it would be wise to worry about it breaking
Using a coupler like in the link above would be a worry free way to extend the steering shaft.

The coupler might work, thanks.
