Title: later model steering wheel in a 73 - how new can I get?
Post by: fbody on May 13, 2010, 09:38:27 am

any idea on how new of a steering wheel will fit into a 73.  I'm sure anything up to 87, but in the 90's?  same shaft size, number of teeth, etc?  I know the airbag won't work, but curious if I junk yard grab a nice newer wheel will it fit on?  Don't want to change the whole column, just the wheel.  thanks.

Off topic, but does anyone know the smallest size that this style came in?

I have that same wheel in my truck, but I think it could stand to be an inch smaller in diameter. Maybe one out of a camaro or something would work.

pretty much any GM wheel will work.
