On a splined barndoor wheel. Is it the same splines as a split or early oval? If so how much difference is there in an early barndoor wheel and the bug? |

Thanks Everett and djfordmanjack.
My 51 bd has a later keyed steering shaft and I don't need the turn signal cancelling ring.
That means that a repro bd steering wheel is in my case just bolt on.
Unless I have missed something fundamental... _________________ Buy the best. Cry once.

The Wolfsburg West website informs:
"Will fit 55-67 with modification"
Can someone explain what steering wheel modification is needed?

For a 55-67 Bus, maybe you have to add the turn signal canceling ring? _________________ How to Post Photos

What is the spoke orientation while driving straight? Is it a- Y? (assuming the drag link is centered ok) |
Yes, it is a "y". Otherwise you would have a spoke covering the speedometer. _________________ C-1 |
