disklok

Post by hughes »

Hi
I want to get a disklok for my morris mino but not sure what size to get.

SMALL 35cms-39cms,
MEDIUM 39cms-41.5cms.
LARGE 41.5cms-44cms.

The steering wheel is standard a 1966 two arm measures 41cm but I see on here a lot of you have the large size disklok.

Can anyone tell me which disklok fits best the medium or the large.

Thank you
Rachel :lol:

You need the largest one for the standard steering wheel.

Yes, its a loose fit but goes on and most importantly doesnt come off without the key.
Keep the key on your key ring and the spare key somewhere handy, make a note of the number/code and keep that handy too :wink:

Every once in a while, spray some WD40 on the key and wiggle it in the lock to keep the mechanism smooth. The last thing you'd want is for the lock to seize up when the disklok is fitted on the steeing wheel! A breakdown man told me that he has to deal with such cases from time to time. But I've had no problem with my Disklok and it's brought me great peace of mind. As a visible deterrent it's potent... I don't think about the £100 I spent any more...

Love the yellow car by the way, unusual to see one, is it standard or your choice?
