Aftermarket Steering Wheel Adapter Hubs

Contents

Overview

Only a few Datsun models used the small diameter steering column shaft, including the B10, B110 & B210. The B10 used blinker canceling pins that were relatively close together & this made it unique. The B110 & B210 share the same specs so the hub/boss is interchangeable between these two models.

Most other Datsun models, including the B310, used a larger diameter shaft & the boss for any of these will be too big in the hole to fit the 1200.

Slim Boss Kits

Short boss kits are totally worth it to maximize steering wheel to body distance.

Randoli: i got a boss kit (HKB Sports made in Japan) through disco bob (look him up on this site)and it was about 12mm shorter than the previous one. i find now my knuckles sometimes flick the indicator stalk. i'm 6'2" and the reach is perfect in a standard seat. so how short is too short

Slightly bend the indicator stalk to the right position. Ring spanner slid down a 1/4 and bend.

datskool110 was making kits

Wardman Engineering can custom machine any boss you would like , short , long , big ,small , but they are custom made from billet 6061-t6 so they are a bit more expensive than eBay specials, but you will have the best one for your application discussion

From $150

Alternatively, consider using a wheel with 'spokes' that are relatively flat, so they don't space it back further.
