    CH Products Yoke Extension

    Wow there is soooo much information on this site I just don't know where to look.

    A while back I was browsing this site and a came across a post that detailed how to extend the shaft on the CH Yoke, now do you think I can find it.....NO!.

    If anyone can point me in the right direction....well that would be fantastic.

    Cheers

    Re: CH Products Yoke Extension

    Hi All-

    There was one more step I had to do when I added the 7" extension. After you add the extension by screwing into both ends of the original plastic tube of the yoke - you must drill a hole at the ends where the plastic pipe meets the galvanized pipe. Insert a screw into the hole. This is to secure the plastic and galvanized pipe together so it does not "unscrew" when too must force is being applied to the left and right controls.

    This wasn't a problem for me until some of my friends tried to use my sim and their controls inputs were a bit overzealous.
