Yes, seriously. Why more turns with a smaller wheel than a standard? Looking forward to read the explanation for that.
Eric You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation.

I've been wanting to change the wheel as it detracts IMO from the overall vehicle.

If your prepaired to ship to Australia I'll work on the cook/finance department.
I'd need to confirm spline counts for the boss as its a early MY12 production. Cheers,
Kyle.

Surely more revolutions with a smaller wheel to get to the same point as a larger one - like a gears

^^ Shocked Rolling with laughter
A smaller steering wheel fixes the same to the steering column as a larger steering wheel. One 360° turn of a smaller wheel has identically the same effect on the steering column as a 360° turn of a larger wheel. No difference at all. Thumbs Up

You must be kidding... What counts is the number of revolutions the steering axis (i.e. the connection between steering wheel and steering box) makes for a given wheel angle... The diameter of the wheel has nothing to do with that... Shocked Cheers, Vincent

All above prices are excluding carriage of £15
