RHD Steering wheel centerline and Dashboard

[Davidmgbv8]

Anyone have a dimension from the center of the steering to the right edge of the chassis. I am measuring 18" however my dash center is about 19".

Any constructive advise is appreciated.

My dash is off centre on my SGT to match the column position, over to the right hand side and as you say by about an inch.

My dash (Forte) was of also. I cut the dashboard and repositioned the gauge locations to correct this.

from Jason's site, you will have to go over there to find the image

I contemplated cutting the LHD up and putting the RHD gauge area in it, but before I did I visited Roaring Forties, they were as helpful as ever and I purchased one of theirs and its very similar to the RCR LHD one, very happy. You can see them all below.

The photo makes them look different in size but they are quite close.

RCR LHD, total width 1,452mm with the steering CL 236mm from the CL of the dash.

RCR RHD, total width 1,475mm with the steering CL 228mm from the CL of the dash.

RF RHD, total width 1,460mm with the steering CL 215mm from the CL of the dash.

Needless to say the RF dash will be fitted. It may need some work at the steering wheel exit but that's OK.

I cant remember what I settled on for my build. It would have been measured in inches and either a whole number or a common fraction.

Thanks Ryan, that was very helpful. My dash is 58" wide the steering on the dash is 9" from center so I have moved the column over accordingly.
