Steering Wheels
« on: January 21, 2018, 10:29:25 AM »
  Hi everyone,
I have a 1978 C-20 Scottsdale, and I have a old sticky rubber steering wheel. I can't get it clean and if anyone has some ides to get it better that would be great. I would like to know the years
that are interchangeable and what models of cabs? 
 
   Thanks

Mine was sticky too when I purchased it in 2015. I have 99% alcohol that I cleaned it with. Worked well for me. Had to clean it a few times till it finally removed stickiness. There may be other cleaners that will work. That is what I had to use.

Anything GM from 69-92 before the air bags will fit.
