Boss Kits & Spacers

Steering wheel boss kits and spacers are essential components for customising and optimising the steering setup in motorsport vehicles. Boss kits, also known as hub adapters, facilitate the installation of aftermarket steering wheels by providing the necessary interface between the steering wheel and the vehicle’s steering column. These kits are typically precision-machined from high-strength materials like aluminium or steel to ensure durability and a secure fit. They are designed to accommodate various bolt patterns and depths, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of steering wheels and quick-release mechanisms.

Spacers are used to adjust the distance between the steering wheel and the driver, enhancing comfort and control by positioning the wheel within easy reach. These components are particularly important in motorsport settings, where optimal driving position is crucial for quick, precise manoeuvres. Spacers are available in various thicknesses and are often made from lightweight materials such as aluminium to minimise additional weight. The use of spacers allows for fine-tuning the steering wheel position without altering the fundamental steering geometry of the vehicle.

Both boss kits and spacers are designed to maintain the structural integrity and safety of the steering system. High-quality kits feature robust construction with secure locking mechanisms to prevent unwanted movement or play in the steering wheel. Additionally, many boss kits include provisions for retaining the functionality of essential controls, such as horn buttons and airbag systems, ensuring that the vehicle remains compliant with safety regulations. Together, these components provide the flexibility and precision needed to tailor the steering setup to the specific demands of motorsport driving.
