Mike'sHorseBarn 3,248 #1 Posted April 13, 2016 I need guidance. I have rebuilt the steering column on my 953 and now I need the rubber grommet that around the column at the dash. It appears as item #46 in the attached picture. If anyone knows where I can get this or something similar to it, I would greatly appreciate it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

953 nut 60,105 #3 Posted April 13, 2016 Steel Rubber Products lists 734 different rubber grommets. Unfotunately you will need to do a bit of hunting since they aren't listed by size, but they are good Quality. McMaster-Carr probably has some too. When you find one please post it so others can know. http://www.steelerubber.com/search?q=grommet 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
k2wilson 41 #4 Posted April 14, 2016 (edited) I needed this same grommet for my 953 a couple years ago. What I did was to measure the diameter of the steering column, ( inner diameter of grommet), and the diameter of the hole in the dash. (Outer diameter of grommet. I don't remember what they are.) Then I did a search on ebay using those dimensions. I found exactly the size needed, and it fit perfectly. Edited April 14, 2016 by k2wilson 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
