Hi All 

 

In a big box which came with my mini there were 2 steering wheels shown below. Can anyone help identify them and what boss I might need should I I want to fit them to my car.

That should be the boss that is in the picture if they cam off a Mini.

well that is the thing. I don't know if they came off the mini. It came in a box with a load of parts, some of which don't appear to be for a mini.

They are both Springalex bosses & steering wheels

A mini boss is 48 splines and the column OD is 3/4” so the boss is slightly smaller when you measure it

I have a spare springalex boss for a mini if you want it?

thanks Timmy

The offer of the spare is great but I suspect postage from Australia is probably going to be super expensive. 

 

Now I know the name I will have a search round to see what I can find.

The last time I checked it was about £20 for standard post. If you’re interested and going to use it on your mini I’m happy for you to have it for the price of postage only

turns out one of the adapters I had fit fine so I have used that. 

 

Thanks for the offer.
