You mean something like this?

Is this something to send off to a fabricator?

I need to know what kind of linkage to the gearbox do you have, is there anything that the pivot can mount to?

Some pics of the area would help

I just started a CAD job a few days ago so I need some practice!

Here's mine, with some basic dimension attached to give you an idea of its size. It pivots on a pair of M5 rod ends, which are bolted to a machined sleeve on the end of the Sierra column.

I could easily change the dimensions on the paddle to suit the size you would want and send you a DXF which you could get Andyw7de on here to water jet cut for you.

there you go one already made I was wondering though, if it is cable operated, how many turns can the steering wheel still do?

Already drawn up! Did you have this machined yourself? Where did you source the mount for cable?

Thanks, Chris

Which would mean the cable coils around the steering column?

Take a look at the drawing; the rod ends fasten to the steering column outer sleeve so the paddle shift, cable or mechanical linkage are stationary
