13" from steering wheel to front axle
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			
			Hi Hanno 
 
I was told once that one of the requirements was that center of the plain of the steering wheel was to be 13" behind the center of the front axle and that there was a very particular reason for this distance.  Something to do with if the wheel is any further ahead (as in a true cab forward) that the driver will not have the proper feel of the vehicle as it turns. 
 
Cheers Phil
