How To Install an aftermarket steering wheel

Sunday, January 18, 2015

Have a new aftermarket wheel in your room you want to install, but dont know exactly how? Watch, Read, and Learn.

1. Locate steering wheel.


2. Take your small screwdriver and pop the H emblem off the wheel.


3. Locate the steering wheel nut. 19mm or 13/16".


4. Find the appropriate socket/extention


5. Zip it out with an impact gun if youve got one. The reason I say use this is because you dont have to worry about the wheel moving very much as you rip the nut off, as opposed to useing a hand-powered ratchet.


6. If the nut doesnt come out in the socket, itll just sit there like yay:


7. Then go ahead and pull the wheel off.


8. *edited* nvm.


9. Slip on the new hub.


10. Bolt down the new steering wheel nut. Connect your horn wire, etc and line up the wheel.
*Note*. When you slide the new hub in, hold the steering wheel up to it(with the wheel in the appropriate position(i.e. vertical) and see if the hub is on right. look at your tires. make sure its straight unless you wanna live with a crooked wheel...


11. After youve lined up the screw holes on the wheel/hub, and have made sure the hub, wheel, and screws are correctly lined up.


And there you have it. Youve completed your wheel install. Good for you! Now your car is more jDm than ever.


Look how much smaller my newly installed wheel is. FYI its a 11" wheel.
