How can I extend the steering wheel??

Hi Guys,

I have a 1974 - 911S that I have converted to RS for Tarmac Racing and I would really like to purchase some sort of device that moves the steering wheel 1/2 to 1 inch closer to me.

Is there such a part available??

Try quick-release hub with an aftermarket wheel.

it would be alot cheaper to use a spacer such as this one. Im thinking of doing the same to my wheel because my knucles almost hit the dash

I used a steering wheel spacer from Pelican Parts, but I just replaced my wheel with one with more dish and removed the spacer. I like it even closer, but on a street car it helps to be able to reach the turn signal stalk.
