Help Finding a Particular Steering Column
Trying to find out who makes this steering column -
Steel Tilt Steering Column, No Shift (A41GM PN 446-1232) I thought it was a Flaming River unit but they say no. It's off a parts list that is 10 years old, maybe older. I can find nothing with google searches. . |

That 32 at the end would indicate to me 32" column which sounds about right, what they came out with. Like I said, I went longer on the one, like long.

Speedway Motors part # for GM Ididit column

Brett,
I designed the chassis to use bespoke steering column parts. I used pultruded S-glass/carbon 1 inch shafts with bonded spline inserts and Borgeson joints. Goodwinds is a good source for the pultruded parts. (Quite pricey of course.) The upper and lower mounts were also bespoke alloy units w/spherical bearings made to fit the drivers angle and altitude preferences. However, some folks wished a standard type column with turn signals, tilt and horn. The parts sheet that you were looking at is quite old and those numbers were from Speedway Motors years ago. The current Speedway part #'s are: Ididit 11-twenty-zed-thirty two-0020 Column (The written numbers are there due to the forum software not liking the number sequence **** for some unknown reason.) Ididit 2401500040 Steering Column Ball Swivel Lower Mount, 2 Inch (footbox) Ididit 2302470040 2.5 In. Steering Tilt Column Drop Mount, 2 Inch (upper) Look at this page as there are many options for the drop mount that will allow you to put the column at the altitude you wish. Hope this helps. |
I marvel at some of the bespoke parts made for the JBL, the lower steering shaft mount with spherical bearing is one of them.

Brett,
I do not know what pedal assembly you have. Either the Tilton or the Wilwood units fit the pedal box. Each one uses a different adjuster cable. If it was my car I would fab up an electric drive for the cable so that it would be easy to adjust between corners. Pretty easy to do and inexpensive as well. Just a simple DC gear motor, a cable, and a switch mounted on the steering or the shifter. Of course one would probably wish to have programmable position stops but this would be pretty easy as well. A op-amp, a rotary pot, and a logic chip should do the trick. I am sure that you have some EE buddies that could whip out the circuit for you. |

Mat got a good deal on some actuators off ebay.

I hope he got the Linak LA12 units -
http://www.linak.com/corporate/pdf/e...0sheet_eng.pdf The servo control circuit is made to work with it, don't think a broader plug'n play is possible with that circuit (notwithstanding mods). . |
