Tony Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 i know momo and grant make hub adapters for most mustangs. you will most likely need to rent a steering wheel puller. that big nut is crazy hard to break loose. the only 2 companies i've found for the adapters are those guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kucklehead Posted January 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 Ok and a friend has a puller. Ill check them outBionic at 20lbs of boost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttocs Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 I got a puller last time, tried using it and it ended up breaking on me. When I went back to autozone to see about the other type, the guy there told me that I really don't need it. remove the nut in the middle, give the wheel a fairly good hit on the top/bottom/and both sides, and then a light tug and you would be suprised how easy it will come off. I was good and pissed by then, probably didn't need to hit it as hard as I did, but it felt good, certainly didn't need to pull as hard as I did and was suprised I didn't break something there. Airbag is easy to replace though other then the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kucklehead Posted January 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 Thats what im sayin for the price i can buy the adapter and a cheap wheel for now. Not skimping out on the adapter. Then later buy a better wheel. Do you have your horn hooked up?Bionic at 20lbs of boost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Det_Riot Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 I know brett has an aftermarket wheel. I've seen a bunch pop up on corral recently with the horn buttons. Should look real good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iRoush Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 figure I'll answer your pm here so the information can keep spreadin'What wheel is that i really like it. I was looking at the momo hub are they all quick release or just certain onesBionic at 20lbs of boostThe wheel is an OMP OD/1990/NN. The MOMO hubs do not come as a quick release, the quick release is an add on to the hub. Im running an NRG V.2 Quick release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pushrod91 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 Guess I'm old school. Cause that wheel looks like a fucking pain in the ass. I hate to see when you over correct on the track racing Johnny Tran and there's no wheel to grab. That's just me though. Whata I know. I'm not a race car driver. I'm just a 350 owner.

kucklehead Posted January 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 Correct me if im wrong but arent most aftermarket wheels a tad bigger than factory? So youd have more wheel. I dont get what ypu mean by over correcting and no wheel being there. Maybe you dont know your car to well. And they are made of better material so you can grip it better and harder (thats what she said) idk about yall but my stock wheel is showing its age and used ness along with the rubber starting to slide. And just cause you drive a 350 dont mean anything. My mom can drive a 350 but that doesn't make her Ken BlockBionic at 20lbs of boost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pushrod91 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 ^ lol. I don't know my car. I'm talking about the flat part where your legs are. When that comes to the top. You don't think that is gonna be awkward when you go to grab where the steering wheel should be? But I have no driving experiance and I'm.not a race car driver like others. So it could just be me.

01yellercobra Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 You can get the aftermarket steering wheels in different diameters. You pick out the one you want.My wheel started showing it's age. I replaced it with another stocker. Works just fine for me.

kucklehead Posted January 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 No i got your sarcasm it just wasnt appreciated. And you dont have to get one with a flat bottom.

Brian Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 Most open track racers have both hands on the sides of the wheel at all times unless shifting. Plus the type of turns they are doing they slow down for. Any major turns wouldn't be during some frantic situation like a drift car might encounter. At least that's my feeling from all the videos I've watched of on board camera in that style of racing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pushrod91 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 I agree with leg room. The sarcasrm wasn't ment for you anyway. It was for Burt. Next time I'll quote his pic. So it will be more obvious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
