Reply to "WTB - momo hub adapter"

Yes, the hub you used is 16 mm with 36 splines. It is often advertised with a part number of R-2. It is common for modern Mazda vehicles.

yes, that hub will slide onto the Pantera steering shaft.

but, that hub does not properly index onto the Pantera shaft taper.

I assume the taper is there for a purpose. I assume when the hub attachment nut is tightened, the intent is for the tapered portions to be forced together for additional friction, so the connection is not fully dependent on the strength of the splines.

here is how the stock OEM hub fits on the shaft.

here is the same hub you used and how it fits onto the shaft.

I have several of those hubs because the seller indicated they were correct for the early capri. The seller obviously was not concerned with the taper.

I do not think that hub should be used on a Pantera.

feel free to convince me that the mismatch is of no concern.
