521 steering wheel parts

[DanielC]

Last year, I got a new steering wheel for Ratsun.  I need some parts for it, because it is a different parts holding the horn bar on the wheel.

This is a picture of the new wheel.

These are the parts I have, and I am missing some.

This is the new style horn bar.

 

And for reference, here is a picture of the old style wheel.

Which parts do you need brother?  The metal ring, the plastic spacer thingies (industry term).  I'll hook you up if I have them.

OH,,that would be so cool!

In this picture,,

I need one more of the black plastic doohickeys, and the rubber piece around the doohickey, and two more screws.  There is also a spring that goes down in the hole, in the steering wheel hub that makes electrical contact, but I think a spring from a ball point clicker pen will work.   The screw may be just a standard #6 machine screw.

The rubber I know from experience can be found in those cheap grommet kits that Harbor Freight sells.  I'll see what I have for you.

I'm looking for one of those springs (red arrow).  If anybody has one, can you send me the dimensions so I can shop hardware stores?

 

Thanks!

There are 2 different horn button setups on the 521. Both look the same from the outside but the parts inside are different including the big spring. One of the big springs has more coils and wont compress enough to get the horn bar back on.

I got the "rarer" steering wheel put together, with some parts from Rocket Dog.  It was rather difficult to get the horn bar on the wheel.  maybe I got the wrong big center spring on that wheel.
