Introducing the Blaine Fab race steering column upgrade for the 4th gen Fbody - toss your old worn out OEM column, with its sloppy tilt mechanism.

Lightweight, compact safety column with telescoping section that meets NASA requirements for aftermarket columns. Approx 12# lighter than OEM column.

Package includes:

- Momo Model 78 suede covered 3 spoke wheel - choice of 330mm or 350mm dia. (other models also available)

- Woodward safety steering column with telescoping section, allows precise positioning to suit drivers position and preference. A variety of nominal lengths are available for stock to rear set seating position, and anywhere in between.

- Woodward splined quick disconnect, precision machined for essentially zero play

- Blaine Fab aluminum 3hole to 6hole adapter, installed with high quality hardware

- Blaine Fab aluminum firewall plate with Woodward adjustable lower mount - uses OEM fasteners, minor trimming of firewall opening required.

- Blaine Fab adapter to connect the Woodward splined lower shaft to the OEM intermediate shaft. Machined/TIG welded/stress relieved/plated for perfect fit and durability.

- Choice of dash bar upper mount (not pictured - welding required) or bolt on upper mount - uses OEM 3pt mounting hardpoints.

Sort of on topic, I have a 85 IROC with a tilt column and stock wheel. Rule change for 2009 required the steering locks to be disabled or removed.

What is involved in doing this on the stock steering column?

I may install a removable wheel at the same time to make it easier to get in and out of the car. Never should have sold my MOD 78 wheel from the Miata!!

Remove the steering wheel, remove a circlip that retains the lock ring, pull the lock ring out and cut/grind the teeth off, and then reinstall the lock ring and circlip.

I have a bolt on quick disconnect available at a reasonable price: $90

Pricing on the Momo Model 78 is now $190

When you unbolt the wheel does the whole tilt mechanism come off?

Do you have bolt on and weld on quick disconnects? Does this replace the tilt mechanism? I nuserstand some quick disconnects get sloppy over time. Is this true? What brand do you supply? If I wanted the Momo wheel to end up in approximately the same position as the stock wheel will I need an spacer?
