Horn Ring Assembly Question

Orif · Post by **Orif** » Thu Dec 20, 2012 2:03 am

I am in the middle of repairing my steering wheel and fixing the horn. Finished the turn signal switch and the horn works fine when I ground the horn button on the turn signal switch. I bought a new horn contact brush which I assume goes in the turn signal switch as seen in the picture:

My question is, what do I put in the hole on the steering wheel before placing the horn ring (arrow on picture below):

I have a spring that fits the hole and seems to work. Is this right?

Thanks for any help!

This is what goes in there.

Thanks, I guess my truck needs 2 of those. One in TSS and one in steering wheel.

Here is the completed horn ring and restored steering wheel. Fixed all of the cracks and filled with epoxy putty.

nice, very nice... I took the easy way out with my '54. The old steering wheel was cracked badly. I had planned on fixing it. I researched how too do it. I even bought lots of JB Weld to fill the cracks. I wasn't real excited about doing it so I found a good used wheel on ebay for $50... no cracks, job done!
