All the various parts for my refurb have arrived, but I have encountered an issue. The place where I want the jockey to go means that you can't fit the seat cushion on, because the steering wheel is too low.
My questions are:
1. How do I remove the steering assembly from the console (if I turn the nuts on the back the whole bolt turns)
2. Can anyone think of a clever way to raise the steering wheel upwards?
Is it Seastar? The studs must be loose but either way it should un-bolt. Trouble you'll be left with a big hole to fill if you move it.
Another option is to fit a wedge which is available to angle your wheel up a bit. Also you could look for a smaller wheel but even doing both these things may not give you enough room.
I have taken two screws out of the black casing beneath the wheel, but I don' think it removes, without the wheel being removed. Do I have to hold the bolts with a pair of pliers, or vice grips while I remove the nuts? Is there no way to hold the head of the bolts?
I was thinking about making a wedge. Any thoughts on what the best way to do this would be?
