Jens has developed a ball bearing conversion kit for LWFF owners and, in the manual, he has given complete instructions, with photos, for disassembly and reassembly of the LWFF, with particular emphasis on reinstalling the cable.

While driving GPL around monza I lost the car and didn't know why? So in my frustration turned the wheel extreme left and ...oh shit sounded like the cable. Took the thing apart, I wonder if there is a procedure -getting to the cable and rewinding it, thanks. Gil

I came really, really close to twisting my old InterAct V3 wheel right off the shaft after losing it at Curva Grande for the millionth time. The only thing that stopped me was that the wheel was a gift from my wife... and she was in the next room :-) I also remember playing a F1 game on my GameBoy during University final exams and hurling the poor GB across the room onto a fairly hard floor. To it's credit the little thing withstood about 5 throws! Rule 1: Keep something cheap and breakable nearby Rule 2: Don't play frustrating games at exam time Rule 3: I'm a spaz.
