Hi All,
I have a non-adjustable steering column in my Healey (BN6) and there are no set-screws on the steering wheel hub (original steering wheel). To begin the removal of my steering wheel do I just pry off the horn button to reveal the single nut that holds the steering wheel on or is there some other method needed to gain access?
This will begin the process of removing my steering box to be sent out for a cleaning and rebuild.
After reviewing the many posts on this Forum, I’m a little confused how things differ with the non-adjustable one vs. the more common adjustable one. I’ve seen lots of pictures of the trafficator for the adjustable steering column that show a short (10 to 12 inch) long tube(stator tube?) that the wiring goes through. Then I see references to a much longer tube for the non-adjustable trafficator but I’ve found no pictures of it nor mention of the removal process.
So, when I remove the trafficator on my non-adjustable steering Healey what should I expect to find? A long (stator?) tube or a short one? Does the non-adjustable steering column have a stator tube that travels all the way to the steering box?
Any advice, guidance and pictures would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Chet
