A quick connect system for a vehicle steering wheel system includes a sleeve concentrically received around a steering shaft of the vehicle and a hub concentrically received around and releasably secured to the sleeve by at least one fastener. Mating non-rotary interfaces are provided between the shaft and sleeve and the hub and the sleeve when the shaft, sleeve and hub are concentrically arranged relative to one another. The hub is releasably secured to by a plurality of fasteners to a rotatable output member of an auto-steer motor of the steering wheel system to permit steering wheel systems that include auto-steer motors to be installed on the steering shafts of vehicles not originally equipped with auto-steer motors.
