"Forever Sharp" steering wheel
« on: April 04, 2016, 12:40:37 PM »
I was not pleased with the Grant Steering Wheel I bought so I returned it, and after much searching I came across a company called Forever Sharp Steering Wheels (http://fssteeringwheels.com/).

They have some cool designs, and I was actually able to find a nice 14" wheel with NO dish, so... plenty of gut-room!

To be honest, it is not constructed like a $300 Italian made wheel, but neither is my budget!  I bought the "Drifter" and they happened to have a slightly scratched one so I got it for $45 + mounting kit for $35.  I am VERY happy with the purchase.  Just thought I'd share the source.

Looks great! Hows  the horn button?
The Grants are lousy.

What size is it? My Grant 13 blocks the view of the gauges.

Horn works great - it is slightly inset as you can see. 

This is a 14"/0" dish and I can see everything well.  I too had a Grant that was supposed to be 13.5" BUT was actually 12.75" and it blocked everything.

Too bad yours is too small, it does look nice.

For those looking for an inexpensive steering wheel, I believe that any GM steering wheel that doesn't have an airbag in it will fit in our pickups.

The J-Body Cavalier wheels fit just fine.  Look like the Chevelle SS wheels.
The 88-94 T400 wheels bolt right on too.  Some came in leather but you can probably get any urethane wheel leather wrapped.

Cavaliers are nice, as well as the celebrity 2 spokes . Don't  care for the 90's truck wheels. I Look from time to time at the yards.
I dislike the crappy aftermarket horn buttons.
