Mounting A 5 or 6-Bolt Steering Wheel To Tilt/Telescoping Column

Instruction #: 8000010013

REV 12/12

The first thing you should know is that all 5 or 6-bolt
steering wheels are not all alike. They all have 5 or 6
screws that hold the wheel to the adaptor, but some are
thicker than others. That being said, the screws provided
with our 5 or 6-bolt adaptors will fit most 5 & 6-bolt
steering wheels, but may need to be longer to fit some of
the other brands available.

1. Disconnect the positive battery cable before installation.

2. When you receive your new column the front lock

down has been adjusted to fit the wheel. To install the
wheel the first thing you must do is remove the horn
button. Use a small pocketknife or small flat head
screwdriver to pry the button out of the lock down.
(Figure 1) Next, disconnect the horn wire from the
back of the button, but leave the other end connected
to the adaptor.

3. Tuck the horn wire down into the center of the adaptor.

(Figure 2) Loosen the 10-32 Phillips head screw and
lock washer until it comes out of the half moon slot
that its in, making sure that it doesn’t hang up on the
horn wire.

(Figure 3) Rotate the lock down counter

clockwise until the 5/16 x 18 set screw is completely
out of the shaft.

(Figure 4) Set lock down aside.

4. You should now be looking at the 5 or 6 10-32 x

1/2 stainless steel sockets cap screws. Take them
out with a 5/32 allen wrench.

(Figure 5) VERY

IMPORTANT!!! Before installing your wheel, the
horn cam hole in the adaptor (where the horn wire
goes) needs to be at the 10:30 position or halfway
between 9 o’clock and 12 o’clock when the steering
wheel is mounted level/straight and the road wheels
are pointing straight.

5. With the wheel in position, install the 5 or 6 screws

and tighten them down.

(Figure 6) Now reinstall the

lock down and turn clockwise until it’s tight. Install
10-32 Phillips head screw (with lock washer) until
it’s tight.

(Figure 7) This screw is used to prevent

the over tightening or overturning of the lock-down,
which would cause the horn wire to wrap when the
column telescoped.

6. Re-install the horn wire to the horn button and reinstall

the button with the logo centered.

(Figure 8)

7. Reconnect the positive battery cable.
