I guess I am old school, but I hate today's fat steering wheels, I like the thin ones. with my big mits i hate the thin ones no one makes a aftermarket hub for bbody to run momo wheels - so I bought a cuda aftermarket hub, had it milled down at a machine shop and now I run a momo proto steering wheel

I've used this Momo om a couple of builds. Very nice feel when driving and goes well with your board name. Oh man, how did you get it to fit? That's the wheel I wanted to use in my Satellite, but between it being just over twice what I wanted to spend and not being able to determine if I could get a mounting kit for it for my Satellite, I gave up. I found mounts for everything from Chebbies to Ferraris, but nothing for B-Body Mopar.

Are you mounting the wheel on the stock column? Do they have a kit?

So, I ended up pulling the trigger with a wide Corbeau LG1 in black Microsuede and a Momo Mod.07 steering wheel. The car will be getting a 5-point belt, but I'm unsure of what brand at the moment. The Dart is also getting an 8-point cage with a swing-out door. Going all out it sounds like !

Are you mounting the wheel on the stock column? Do they have a kit? That's up in the air right now. My column was a little messed up due to the last time I rebuilt it. I forgot to install something or installed it correctly and it caused radial play within the column and my turn signal lever to travel anywhere between 7 and 11 o'clock. If they can salvage my column, I believe they're going to try to make it removable. If not, they may try installing a tilt column.

Those seats are the only one that fit, the shop gets a discount on Momo products, and the cage is because I don't want to get seriously injured or die. Let's face it, these old cars are tin cans. If I crash at a high speed, or even on the streets, I'd like to be able to walk away from it.

Im going to adapt a 6 bolt adapter to a Grant adapter. They make 3 bolt to 6 bolt adapters. Mine is only 1/2" thick too, going with a 2.5-3" deep wheel.
Mopar to the bone!!!

I found mounts for everything from Chebbies to Ferraris, but nothing for B-Body Mopar. I had to combine a Momo adaptor and a Grant adapter. It's been a few years, so I don't have the part numbers - Sorry... As I recall, the Grant adapts the Mopar column, then from the Grant to the Momo steering wheel adaptor to the Momo wheel.

I got these because they're the only race seats that are wide enough for my hips and my shoulders that would accommodate a 5-point belt. http://corbeau.com/reclining-seats/lg1.htmlIf you want a kind of period-ish low back look, you may want to try these. http://procarbyscat.com/seats/Rally-LowbackBut they have other seats. http://procarbyscat.com/SeatsThey even sell adapters for our old mopars. Plus, you can get them from Summit.

Welp, my 3-point conversions from Seatbelt Solutions arrived today, and they are excellent! BTW... made in the USA! Mine have the chrome hinge release instead of the button, and they look great! The only thing that is different from the OEM replacements is... the belts are 7 panel webbing instead of 4, like the factory belts. And the slider loop where the shoulder attachment bolt is located, does not drop down about 7"-8''. This causes the shoulder strap to ride up on my neck, so I will fabricate a drop down segment myself. It's well worth saving a 160 bucks!
Additionally, I don't see any 5-point harnesses on their website. I'd like to see some pictures!
