If my records are correct, the Momo M7005 hub is what fit my 79.

Odds are your upper steering bearing has collapsed and the shaft has retreated into the column as it is spring loaded.

Are you sure you have the correct Momo hub for the 928..?

As Hacker mentions, you need the 7005. The 0231 is for 74-89 911.

^ Yes. This is basically correct.
That is what I have on both of mine.
The full number on the box is 12120117005.
The stamp on the base says L7005.

well there is either a problem with the shaft or its the 7005 the only other number listed. like i said over here i cant find a shop that doesnt spec the 0231. 7005 is for 88 onwards. remember this is a euro car.
anyone that side of the pond sporting a euro 928 and 7005 boss ?

2dogsjohn,

Trust what the other guys are telling you. The 7005 is the proper(only) hub for ALL 928s (US or ROW) that do not come equipped with an AIRBAG, period!

FWIW, I have been selling and installing Momo products for the 928 exclusively for almost 20 years.

Cheers,

Dave

Curious what sites you are checking, I went through my records and I've ordered a couple of these from different sites and they all listed the 7005.

I have multiple steering wheels from S4's S3's and OB's, they all fit my 79 and 81 including the 7005 hub.

I highly doubt the Euro's have a different steering shaft.

spoke to someone at MOMO today and guess what number they gave me 0231, when i told him about 7005 he said no way. clearly he's wrong as it doesnt fit ; but does make you wonder, he's going to email the tech drawings over so i can see if the other would fit.

You sure it was someone at Momo? Their own web site has 7005 listed for all years 928:

http://www.momousa.com/store/index.p...s/porsche.html

Click on 928, it takes you to the 7005 product page.


The 0231 is listed for:
911 - 911 CARRERA - 930 TURBO
8/74-89
