Default Raising my steering wheel

Is there a way to raise my steering wheel on my 18? At 6’1 I’m always a little hunched over. I have a standard 3/4” helm with the little key thing. An inch or two higher would be wonderful.

Thank you for any feedback.

Rob

You can build a wedge or lift type block. Just cut out the bottom enough to pass the cables thru. Attach from under the console. Might take a little configuring.
Here's how I did both wheel & throttle.

I had an aluminum box made and powder coated to raise mine before the rebuild. I'll see if I can find pics of it. Not as Gucci as Capt. Chuck but worked great.
