Seng Steering Wheel
Anyone have a Seng Steering Wheel that could let me know how to get the horn ring working? I'm pretty sure I have a missing part that is right below the wheel that contacts the horn ring.. There has to be a sliding part that contacts the ring on the wheel.
It's a pretty neat after market wheel. The anti-theft part works great. On and off with the original key.
Any help would be nice.

Re: Seng Steering Wheel
Frank,
Yes I saw that link. The part I must be missing is below the wheel, seen in the first picture and the fifth picture. I looks as though that part is covering the steering gear case. I am asking if that part somehow is able to go around the gear case. I wouldn't think a steering wheel manufacturer would supply a whole new steering case.
Has anyone here taken one of these apart?
Thanks!

Re: Seng Steering Wheel
I have one of those wheels in my stuff somewhere. I do not believe that I have the lower part that goes below the
section that spins.
My Seng wheel also has woodgrain effect painted on the main stamped spider piece. I'm pretty sure that is original.
My father was in the upholstery business for 50+ years, beginning in the 1930's and he had a book published by the Seng Manufacturing Company telling the history of the use of springs in upholstery applications. I believe this is the same company that produced these aftermarket locking steering wheels for Model Ts.

Re: Seng Steering Wheel
Frank I kept looking at that first photo, thinking wow someone else moved their horn button to the other side so the turn signal could be mounted. Then I looked really close, oh that was mine. LOL
Before getting too in to the project, mock mount the steering wheel. What I found when I mounted the one shown above, it was too big and was just in the wrong place for my taste. Other then that because I only had it for a short time, I don't recall any of the details on how it mounted etc.
