Quick Release steering wheel hub
 
Does anyone know if someone makes a quick release steering wheel hub for a 1969 Camaro stock steering column?

Thank you

Thank you

Ididit has them for 5 and 6 bolt racing steering wheels and Grant also has one.

Be careful to choose one that has SFI SPEC 42.1 .
Jegs offers a USA made house branded coupler for both 3 and 5 bolt wheels and GM spline with SFI SPEC for under $100 .
I have used them and fond them to be as good in function and quality as anyone else.

Please I am not stealing your post but may I jump in and ask........if you buy a unit like Grant or even Allstar Performance type, it has a splined cylinder that slides on the steering column and then the large stock nut holds it on.......the rule book makes me believe that the large nut has to be welded to pass tech .....am I interpreting that correctly or------ what exactly has to be welded ??????

I have never welded the nut on any splined coupler I've done .
.
I believe that statement in the rules pertains to non splined 3/4" smooth shaft couplers . Quite a few years ago it was not uncommon to see them thru bolted to the shaft with 1/4" or even smaller bolts and no welds.

Tom is correct. Only on non-splined shafts.
