Default Replacing Stock Seat Sliders

Does anyone make seat sliders or rails with longer travel to replace the stock parts?

I'm looking to buy a 69 Camaro, but I have trouble getting under the steering wheel to get in and out of every car I try. Have a 32 in inseam

32" inseam? I have a 36" and can fit no problem.

Yep. I'm all leg and short body. A 32 in inseam and I'm only 5'10. Makes the steering wheel rest right on my legs. A tilt steering wheel would probably help too, but I was think replacing the rails and sliders would be cheaper and easier.

Compared to me, you have short legs! Guess I'm not quite following where the steering wheel/leg bind is. Oh, but I do have a smaller diameter aftermarket steering wheel, that could be why I don't bind.

Don't you just love the comments that don't answer your questions? Some people just gotta chat. Two of us have now.

I am 6'4" with 36 inseam; I have the seat extenders & a tilt-wheel.
I am comfortable in my Camaro.
Also I do intend to get a smaller diameter steering wheel, just because with that big wheel I feel as if I'm driving a bus.

Where did you get the seat extenders.

how hard is it to put in the tilt steering? i like both of those options. im 6'1, not a giant but not short. rather have the room and not need it than need it and not have it
