hi guys,
i was hoping that some one could please advise me as usual on how many splines the vette steering colum shaft has that the steering wheel slides/bolts on to please ??
iv got my steering wheel of and my 1991 vette has 32 splines and is split system,16 each side and slot up top and bottom @ 12 o clock and 6 o clock position,
is this normal??
i was told that generally the gm have more splines and dont have the slot up top and bottom.
and im thinking may be they changed the steering colum spline shaft when they converted from left hand drive to right hand drive.
not sure why though ??
any help guys please ??
cheers

Think about this: you're car is US spec. It has the US column.

I would be willing to bet that Holden sourced columns are different.

I can check my 92 (ordered a new steering wheel!) next week. But I don't know if it will help. The column style changed... but the splines should be the same, cause 90-93 wheels are supposedly the same.
