Grant adapter

Any tips, tricks or precautions I should know when I install a Grant steering wheel on an 86 X?

DO you have the grant hub adapter? If not, you will need one.

The only good tip I can think of is this: When removing the old wheel, loosen the center nut, but leave it on. That way when you whack on the wheel to get it loose it won't end up hitting you in the nose.

I think Tony shared this with us years ago. Have you seen his nose?

I do have the correct Fiat installer kit yes. And thanks for the tip my nose appreciates it!

HAHAHA...

Yeah... he first time I hit myself in the face was with an old Chevy pick-up wheel though!

wow

That was a way easier install than I expected. A quick glance over the instructions and it took maybe 15 minutes.

So I got my sweet new steering wheel but the car is still up on jack stands cause I can't get the brakes to bleed right That's for another thread though. Once I have some extra cash I will pick up the matching evolution shift knob. :bla:

WHOOS! You read the instructions!!!

HAHAHA!

Some of us may cave in and do that also but we'd never admit it... and at least it would not be the FIRST thing we did!

HA...

Hey... looks good...

Don't tell anyone, but sometimes I even stop and ask for directions. haha
