I love grant wheels!! I've had one on almost every ride I've owned( 5 grant wheels total ). I've installed every one of 'em and haven't had a single problem. The directions for horn installation are simple and they even give you a schematic for it. Follow the directions and you shouldn't have any trouble. If your horn works now it will still work after installing a grant, especially with the wheel you chose because the gt models are the easiest to install. I wouldn't hestitate to get one IMHO

I also have a Grant wheel. Pretty damn good IMHO. I also had an issue with the horn though. For now - I just rev the engine, and use the finger, instead!

Here's a peice of mine - the other half looks just the same!

Yeah Mudder I like that one much better too. I had a red one on my old blazer that looked like that. The grip is just really comfy on the hands. I'd ditch the rice wheel idea and go with one from church IMHO.

Didn't mean to scare you Mudder, LOL! Here is a pic of my Grant, looks like the old Camaro and Corvette wheels, and I've had a lot of nice compliments on it. Had to mount a horn button under the dash like krazy_texan did.

Think maybe you just woke me up. This has been one nightmarish weekend for me. Truck is at at F$rd friends house all 4 days this weekend and he's trying to get my carb running. I bought a Truck Avenger Offroad Holley back in Oct and I still haven't got it running. Gonna go buy another Monday just in case he cant get it going. This thing has to be running in 2 weeks. This is the 3rd guy that knows carbs thats worked on it and had no luck. I will be callling Holley again tomorrow morning.
