I was hoping to make a trip to a couple of pick a part yards tomorrow and finding a smaller steering wheel. Anything other Chevy steering wheels fit?

An 88-98 wheel will fit.

b454rat · 12-22-2009, 10:49 PM

I like the Cavalier wheels, they are smaller so you have some leg room, padded, look 10 times better than the huge ferris wheels these trucks came with.

I think all of the GM non-air bag wheels swap back and forth. If you can take your wheel with you and compare them.

Scootin 81 C20 · 12-23-2009, 01:38 AM

Does anybody know if a 67-72 wheel will fit in an 81????

I think it will.... I've seen a 67-72 with a 78 or so wheel in it, on the 67-72 column.

thirdstreettito · 12-23-2009, 02:59 AM

I like my ferris wheels.

dammitmitchell · 12-23-2009, 04:58 AM

I found a gray one of those on a Chevette. I have it in my 67 C-10.

68Timber · 12-23-2009, 10:49 AM

I'm using this one in my Blazer.

You probably won't find it in a junkyard, but it's a Grant copy of a wheel used in older Corvettes and I'm pretty sure it was used in some Chevelles. That is my favorite Chevy steering wheel.

That's awesome! I love those classic steering wheels.

Adams74Chevy · 12-23-2009, 12:41 PM

I'm at work or else I'd go measure mine, but what is the stock diameter of our steering wheels?

i think a wheel like this, with a horn button like this would look cool.

that's the route i'm going.

1LowToy · 12-24-2009, 12:29 AM

I like that 80's Camaro steering wheel. I found one off of an S-10 today at UrJerkinit (PicknPull and pay out ragious taxes). I went there with a plan and all my tools slected for the job, so I thoght. I forgot to stop at a hardware store for a couple of 5/16 bolts for the wheel puller. I had one and took about an hour and a half to find another laying on the ground. That's just how it works at a UrJerkinit yard.

The steering wheel is from an S-10 but I see the same one on Astro vans.

Pics to follow. And keepem coming, I have a 30 day exchange,,, and another $25 bucks for gas to get there and back.

xs-style · 12-24-2009, 09:59 AM

I like that one too. My 83 Z/28 had the leather wrapped version. They are pretty hard to find in decent shape in the Camaro's. Good to know they were in some S-10 variants too.

85X3 · 12-24-2009, 12:28 PM

I've had the three spoke Buick/Corvette comfort grip on my last few vehicles and really like the OE look. You can find them in several colors also. Merry Christmas.

1979,GMC,1ton-addict · 12-24-2009, 10:19 PM

pcmcobra · 12-24-2009, 10:56 PM

I have an early 90's leather 4 spoke from fullsize truck on my 86. Looks great.

1LowToy · 12-24-2009, 11:22 PM

I saw one on an Astro van in leather too. Maybe I should have nabbed that one.
