Re: Aftermarket column + old steering wheel?
Generally, the splines on the early Chevy steering wheels are the same, but it's the shape and depth of the steering wheel hub that can leave a gap between the wheel and the column. I also went with an Ididit Retro Series column and reduced the diameter of a deluxe (Biscayne) steering wheel.

Re: Aftermarket column + old steering wheel?
This came off an early Nova. I used the blow ring from the Nova and a 65 Gmc cap. I couldn't get the ring to blow the horn but i had the one grounding ring on upside down. Column out of a 80 Chevy van with tilt had to move neutral safety switch now all fits perfect. Sorry about the pics all i have right now.

Is the wheel deeper than the truck wheel? My '65 Deluxe steering wheel is 5-1/4" deep. |

Re: Aftermarket column + old steering wheel?
Thats a good question never measured it. I will take a look at it. I bought this truck as a basket case i don't even think i had a steering wheel.

Re: Aftermarket column + old steering wheel?
I just purchased an Ididit Retrofit steering column for my '65 C10.
ididit 1140650010 Best price I could find and still get it before June was through Summit Racing. You'll also need to purchase the steering wheel adapter kit to fill in the gap between the column and original wheel. ididit 2612100040 |
