Steering Wheel Hub Adapters

These billet aluminum adapters eliminate the need for spacers or other adapters.  They come complete with a black horn button and wire feed through. Included, for the 1965-66 model, is a new plastic turn signal cancelling cam. This cam replaces the fragile stock part. For earlier models, you remove the original cam and re-install it on the new adapter. These are a gorgeous piece of work, designed and built in the USA. They are finished in brushed aluminum, allowing you to paint to match your column if desired.  The adapters allow you to choose from many different wheels, making installation a breeze. Each adapter includes the black horn button and the cancelling cam if required. Thin adapters are available for installation of either 3-bolt wheels, 9-bolt wheels or Nardi-pattern 6-bolt wheels.

 

There are four different hub adapters:

 

1960-63 models (Also fits Forward Controls- all years)

These are dual-drilled. The hub has both the six-bolt pattern that allows the Momo bolt pattern (6 on 70mm) wheels to bolt directly on. It is also drilled with the six-bolt GM pattern 6 on 2.75" for use with the two-spoke GM sport wheels, optional on 64-66 models or aftermarket wheels with that pattern. A small number of 5- bolt Grant adapters are available.

 

1964 Wood Wheel – Fits 64 only.

This is a duplicate of the rare factory wood-grained steering wheel adapter. It mounts the 2-spoke factory wheel, the factory horn button and horn switch, all of which are available reproduced. Other replacement wheels with this pattern are available.

 

1964-66 models (not for use with Telescoping column) Shown above!

This new adapter is designed to allow use of the two-spoke factory wood-grained plastic steering wheels, or aftermarket versions of the wheel (available in either real walnut or black leather. The hub is available with the reproduction horn switch assembly and your choice of GM Horn buttons, at extra cost.  This hub adapter is also drilled for the different Momo 6-bolt  wheels, like the 60-63 units above. This hub comes with a new bolt-on turn-canceling cam, the horn pass through and a black horn button for use with the Momo wheels.

 

1967-69 models (not for use with Telescoping column)

This six-bolt adapter is designed for GM 6-bolt pattern steering wheels, or aftermarket wheels with that same pattern. Other bolt patterns are available on special order, even a 6 to 9-bolt converter. (Other bolt patterns may not be US sourced.)

 

All Hubs are the same price $120  -  plus $10.60 shipping

Add $10.20 Sales tax, if shipped to a California address.
