2007 Ski Nautique196 - Steering Wheel Bolt Alignment

[Mack_SN196]

I'm looking into replacing my steering wheel. It looks like the OEM 6-bolt pattern orientation on the wheel hub starts at 1 O'clock (see pic). I have seen several steering wheels that I like, but the bolt pattern starts at 12 O'clock (see pic). Does anyone know if I can simply rotate the existing hub on the spindle to get the Nautique orientation to 12 O'clock, is there an adapter, or should I let this dog lie and narrow my options to wheels that have matching bolt patterns.

Thanks!

Those little bolts do not connect it to the rack. To remove the wheel, remove the center cap and use a deep-socket 3/4" socket to remove the single nut. It should pop right off. It can then be remounted in any orientation you prefer.

Thanks Jeff, new wheel arrives on Friday!
