aftermarket steering wheel on 72 k5
got one from pep boys that they said would fit. no splines and different bolt pattern on new wheel. am i missing something?
i ask because i have to start this thread from laptop but add pics from phone so I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed. probably shoulda got a c 10 wheel at a junkyard right? mine has been chewed on by squirrels/rats in a barn |

Re: aftermarket steering wheel on 72 k5
Most aftermarket wheels require the use of an adapter kit from the same company. I have a grant gt wheel on one of mine and it required the adapter kit. You should be able to either google or ask at PepBoys what kit you need.

Re: aftermarket steering wheel on 72 k5
It's strange that the kit had no splined component but was supposed to work on my truck.
Thanks for response.... Will do homework |

Re: aftermarket steering wheel on 72 k5
well there's your problem right there- the people at my pep boys dont know a screw from a battery. Dont know if your pep boys is this way, mine is. I put a grant 967 steering wheel in my blazer and it does indeed require separate mounting hardware. horn adapter kit as well
