mrmustang Posted July 16, 2021 Posted July 16, 2021 As I sit 700 miles away from my latest Caterham (family first, cars second), I'm wondering what my options are for a quick release mechanism for my current fixed steering wheel. What is everyone using these days? Must I replace the upper steering shaft, or can I just add a US sourced quick release to the existing shaft? As always, thanks in advance, Bill S.
Mark IV Posted July 16, 2021 Posted July 16, 2021 Bill, You can add a QR from Speedway, Summit or wherever so long as the diameter of the QR collar matches the shaft diameter. You can have a bushing machined and welded to the shaft. Or we can get you an upper shaft with the QR. Your dropped floor is on the way.
toldfield Posted July 16, 2021 Posted July 16, 2021 (edited) Meteor Motorsport is where I got mine. QR hub and upper shaft already to go. No welding, machining, or other drama. And they are a pleasure to deal with... https://www.meteormotorsport.com/ Edited July 16, 2021 by toldfield edit
Bartman Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 I got the one directly from Caterham, pretty nice, it was before I knew Simon at Meteor Motorsport otherwise I would for sure have got it from him he's such a nice person to talk to and always ready to talk Caterham.
