Motion Raceworks SFI rated 42.1 quick release is the result of multiple years of development and brain storming. Steering components are your direct link to your machine, and as such they should accommodate your needs and make things easy.
Starting from scratch we were sick of using splines on the coupling mechanism, they tend to gall up and become difficult to clock/orient in the dark or when you are in a hurry. Our unique puzzle piece style design allows for a crisp feel and interlock while making lining up and putting on the car easy and stress free.
In addition to the locking mechanism, our weld on shaft piece has two unique features that make it a fabricators dream and steering feel is optimized in the process. 3/4" OD shaft fit means you slip this collar over the 3/4" inner shaft and weld which means no more turning down shaft to accommodate tubing wall thickness differences. The built in washer when utilized with the Motion nylon bushing means effortless, smooth steering without the potential for warped retainer washers or other retainment mechanisms.
Finally we don't think you should have to choose between 5 or 6 bolt style steering wheels when buying a quick release. Our quick release hub has both bolt patterns built in which means choosing a steering wheel is based solely on your preference, not the bolt pattern you have available.
Features:
Unique, easy to use interlocking coupling piece
SFI certified
3/4" OD weld design makes welding easier, stronger, and cleaner

Overall rating: 4.9 / 5 from 102 reviews.
Fit was perfect. Very smooth and was easy to install. Night and day difference from the old splined quick connect that I had been using. No worrying about putting the wheel on straight with this puzzle piece style quick connect!
I wanted to show the business end of the steering hub. It comes with stainless hardware and a horn cap. The way this engages onto the shaft is a great improvement over the competitions multi spline setup.
Thanks Motion Raceworks
I had another manufacturer coupler that would not stay where it was suppose to. Came off on launch almost hit the wall. Upgraded to Motion Raceworks coupler no problems since. Dwayne
Way better than expected, perfect fit and super easy to line up when you are in a hurry vs other splined hubs.
The quick release fit our Grant 5 spoke wheel perfectly.
Don’t mind the mess that is my car but best quick release I’ve used! Like it a lot more than any of the ones that have splines. So much easier to get lined up.
I’ve not gotten it installed yet, but it is so smooth to operate. Also, since it only fits together one way, it will help to keep the wheel straight. Can’t wait to get it on the car!
I did it a little differently than it's designed to be used. I made a Plat that will bolt to a gm column and welded the "puzzle piece" onto the plate. All the parts are extremely high quality! Welded good.
The part is absolutely amazing. It is so much better than a splined quick release! My only concern is that it is heavy. I noticed it immediately. The car that we are assembling is very light and we are being very weight conscious with the build. I will be returning this piece and I have already ordered the lightweight version and some titanium steering shaft to keep up with our light weight program.
the steering wheel quick release works great and has practically no play in the fitting. Steering wheel fits much tighter than the gear-shaped one I had previously.
Didn’t fit over shaft wouldn’t take a return have to fabricate my own plate after all said and done the quick release wouldn’t seat properly… won’t put a review but do better
