How many different GM steering wheels will fit a 1970 column?
I have a rebuilt tilt column for a '70 on the way from Kevsclassics; and I need a new steering wheel.
My current ragged column seems to have a wheel from the late 70's to early / mid 80's, and it fits quite well. Which begs the question, how many different wheels from different years will fit that column? Thanks! |

I think all from the early 60's to the mid 90'swill work. The advent of the airbag marks the end of a wheel that you would want to use as the shape is out of proportion with not only the rest of the column but the rest of the int. of the truck. A very common swap is a wheel from the 88-94 siverado truck. It has the padded four spoke design that is sometimes found leather wrapped. S-10's of that era also carried the same wheel as did astro vans.

You can also use the steering wheels out of some of the Jeeps. They have some sporty looking steering wheels.
