I set out this past week to order a steering column for my car and when I couldn't find what I wanted i decided to make one. I took some tips form here and set to work.
1.5" tubing, 3/4" steel rod, a plate cut for the wheel and the bearings.
Here are the bearings I used, from a local tractor supply.
plate welded to the rod, mounting tab mounted to the column and the bearings have been greased and tacked in.
Mounted up
Removed and painted
I didnt like seeing the bearing and rod when it was installed os I added a sleeve to the wheel plate
Painted and installed
