Title: Steering wheel hub and adapter
Post by: bbfsouthwind on April 17, 2013, 03:34:49 PM

I have a dilemma, I am getting close to the rigging stage on my boat and I have ordered a steering post and adapter from rex marine. Problem is that they cannot tell me when they will begin producing some more of them. Only problem is that I am unsure where else to get a 6" steering extension for a morse rack? Also need a adapter hub for a momo wheel, both in polished form . Thanks in advance for any help! I wouldn't mind buying used if anyone had that stuff lying around.

yeah i hear ya. they aint cheap!  difference is that the dana one is a billet alum piece, and rexmar could be an aluminum cast piece.

only reason i ask is because i bought a cast steering wheel adapter and my steering wheel pretty much fell off when all the threads ripped out of it.   :mad:

Hmm, lady at Rex said they make em in house. Hasn't started making them because of a move or something?

yeah they recently moved, he was selling off a bunch of cabinets and such.  didnt know they made the parts in house.  thats pretty sweet.

glad you got a deal on yours thru ebay.  my next guess would be to hit up mouzer, he always has a bunch of odds and ends laying around.
