Exclamation 626 Area... Help Needed!! Need a loaner steering wheel for FC3S and car trailer...

Sup gang!


I'm in dire of a steering wheel (stock preferably) and a car trailer. I was forced to move out of my house on a very short notice and I need to tow my FC to my new home. I'm rather tight on funds for the moment, and I'm asking for anyone who has these laying around waiting to put to use to open up their heart and help a brotha out and loan it to me. I'm willing to give up what I can in exchange for the service...


I'd only be needing those things for a good hour or two, and renting a car trailer from Uhaul would be something I'd like to avoid having to pay for... I have to be completely out of my current home by tomorrow night, so it's something I'll be needing it ASAP... and FYI, my new place is approximately 10 miles away, so the trailer won't be on an extreme journey during the move.


Anywho, thanks for your time reading this and have a great day West Section!!

thanks for offering all your help guys!!!!!

okay, i've decided to go this route and not pick up a steering wheel... i'm gonna tow the JDM FC first. when i get it home, i'll just uninstall the steering wheel and bring it to the crippled RE FC... i sure hope the S5 JDM steering wheel mounts and fits onto the S4!.... if not, it's gonna be the ghetto vise grip tactic!

robert! if you see this, i'm counting on you bro!! i'll give you until 3pm to give me a response... if not, i guess i'll have to rent a trailer .... saaaaaave me!!!


thanks again... you guys are the best!! i know i haven't been around lately and yet you guys are still always there... glad to be a part of this "community"!!! i added a few more pics to my photo album by the way.... cheers!!!

no worries robert.... thanks for the heads up! i know it's a long shot, but by chance would you be able to loan the trailer out? willing to pay for any damages done and pay you a small fee or a cool car part... no wrong doing here, i'm karma's best friend

i had to move out because the lease was up on the rent, and the owners wanted their house back..... it was really my roommates' fault for not telling me!! making the departure a spontaneous one mayannnnn!! how good it feels to be flexible enough to pull off the task!!!

don't be greedy ed... you already have a sweet one!! hehe


project officially starts next week after i'm finished settling down... have a great weekend west coast!!
