Title: Steering wheel height
Post by: Erich Bauer on April 02, 2022, 10:08:28 AM

I'm trying to set my steering column height up. I don't have any old reference to go by and I'm using power steering. So can anyone tell me what the dimension is from the floor to the horn button? Thanks

Erich,
Not sure which model you're referring to but here's a couple of drawings that may help:

BTW, my '54 3B horn button is about 28.25" from the floor (the fuel tank was in the way for a direct measurement).

Added:  After thinking, I believe the measurement from the toe-board (along the steering column) up to the horn button would probably be more helpful!  I measured 31 1/8" for that.
