I picked up a Momo steering wheel for my car, and it came with this unidentified hub. It is stamped with the number 9003, but I couldn't find it in a Google search. I'm assuming it is NLA, or they changed the part number. I did a quick spline count and came up with 48 give or take. Does anyone know what it's for?

Not sure exactly what, but based on similar part numbers in the series I'm betting some kind of early Volvo...

Thanks for the lead. Looks like this one is similar, too bad I don't speak Swedish.

The number would be early Volvo or late Suzuki!

Volvo 142 - 144 - 145 - 164 from -73, 242 - 244 - 245 up to -75, 264 - 265 up to -75

Mystery solved! Now I need to find a new home for it, since I don't think I will be owning a vintage Volvo anytime soon. Although now that I have the hub, it would be a good excuse to buy a car to put it in.

In that case, what cars share the Taurus 5X108 bolt pattern?

Name your price. I still know a lot of folks in the Vintage Volvo community, and it is a somewhat sought after piece you've got there.

Same bolt pattern, but opposite offset. You need spacers thick as a brick to get FWD wheels to fit.

I have it on fairly good authority that this is correct.
