Is This Just a Stocker?
I'm now to a point I know what is "extra". This steering wheel came in one of the cabs and I don't remember which one.
It seems like leather. But it's probably something else. It feels "padded. One little blem keeps it from being cherry. I don't really know what to do with it. But I don't want it to go to "waste". More pics later on smugmug if these suck. Here: http://magwa.smugmug.com/Trucks/Chev...1410&k=vVtMfss

Re: Is This Just a Stocker?
I am pretty sure that is a 90's model S10 stock steering wheel.

Re: Is This Just a Stocker?
It's an 88-94 (I believe that's when the wheel changed) upscale/sport wheel from a C/K series. My '92 GMC SLE came with one. They are a popular swap in these trucks because they are very comfortable and GM. I have one in my '71 tow truck and also in my '85 Jimmy.

Re: Is This Just a Stocker?
ditto (on the ID) - my 92 K1500 had one just like it.

Re: Is This Just a Stocker?
Thanks, Guys.
I'll be running this one: (In the pic). But I went ahead and ordered a horn ring for the 88-94 so I have a complete replacement for whenever or for whomever needs a new wheel. What's another fifteen bucks when I'm so buried already? I appreciate the help.

Re: Is This Just a Stocker?
Sorry. I pulled out the wheel this morning. Can't find a mfg's brand on it anywhere. Maybe it's under the horn ring.
Italian. It was the subject of this post, post #6. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=493637

Re: Is This Just a Stocker?
the wheel you ask about has the same fit for a GMC or Chevy horn button sell on CL here for 40 bucks you pick the horn button you want. I'd like one like you are going to use.

Re: Is This Just a Stocker?
The stock wheel was on C/K trucks 88/94 Astro/ Safari vans and S/T trucks and blazer/jimmys. With the upper trim levels the highest trim had leather[fake?] wrapping and red stripes in the center of the cap. A lot of people might overlook the van angle so if your looking for thoses type of wheels[ I probably threw away 30 or 40 back in the day when I dealt in Silverado trucks] in the pick apart yards. They are nice looking and very comfortable
