[Tigers] Tiger Steering Wheel Spline(s)

[Sandy Ganz]

WUB -

If you look at the steering shaft from the top with the wheel and
adapter off, (on mine anyways) exist 2 splines one closer to the top, and one
below it, each is a different size. The top spline is smaller, then the one
under it is a larger diameter. The current adapter and the grant adapter
attatch to the TOP and Smaller spline not the one below it.

What I'm talking
about in the 'spline diameter' is really the diameter of the shaft at the
spline measured with a caliper, so really the outside diameter of the spline.
Did that make sense?

I am not sure I understand what you are
referring to with the word "spline"
when you say "spline diameter" and "bottom
spline".  Would you please
clarify?  BTW, Crowder's is definitely a reputable
company.  Thanks.

Seems like .050 off is
