Long boss kit

[FanIsHere]

I'm going to replace the OEM steering wheel with a Momo one that isn't deep at all and I'm after a boss kit that will be long enough so I won't switch on the flashlights every time I turn it, like I do with the standard hubs which are being sold all over ebay (6-7cm). I need something around 10cm.

Standard wheel hubs sold all over e-bay:



I've found some spacers, but I don't know if they are safe.

Spacer 1:


Spacer 2:


A hub that I have found and it's 10cm long, it's from SAAS and I only find it in Australia, which is expensive too (around €120 without taxes).

SAAS wheel hub (10cm):


Another one 10cm long is from Bulgaria, made somewhere in Europe, but it doesn't fit to the AE86 as the seller said (don't know the reason).

Hub from Bulgaria (10cm):



Is there any other provider mostly from Europe, that provides long boss kits and cheep ones? I don't want to use a quick release kit either, the Chinese ones aren't safe enough.

I think Luisi makes a longer one, can measure for you on Friday?

Momo 7711 boss kit ? 90mm face to face. I use one of these with a 32mm
thick spacer and a flat Momo wheel.

I would use the B&G Adapter or another one from Demon Tweeks rather than buy another boss tbh.

I've been trying to sell a genuine Nardi Boss from an MK1 MX5 for months

So 90mm plus 32mm spacer? 122mm and your hand isn't far from the indicators' switch?

I was thinking that a hub around 100mm would give approx the same space from the indicators' switch as with the stock steering wheel.

Can I have a photo of yours?

Yes, the wheel is a long way from the indicator switch... you pretty
much have to take your hand off the wheel to reach the switch. The
reason I added the spacer was to get some more room between the
bottom of the wheel and my knees. Without the spacer I was bumping
the wheel when changing down, especially when using heel and toe.

I'm 180cm tall, but if you are less you probably don't need the spacer.
The Momo wheel is not in the car at present. I am using the Momo
boss kit with a dished Nardi wheel and a 12mm spacer.

I am 1.80m tall too, but I use a Sparco bucket seat and the steering wheel is adjustable in high, so it's like 2cm off my feet.

Forgot about this, sorry. But I have measured it now and it's 80-90mm

The boss spacer finally arrived and made the hole set around 10cm. It was at the preferable length, but now I found out that suddenly the MOMO steering wheel I own is small enough for the AE86.
