steering wheel swap
Hi guys,long time lurker here and first time posting.
I have a 78 chevy c10 and want to swap the steering to one out of a 99 suburban but i'm not sure if it will fit. Anyone knowif it will fit on the 78? I'm talking about the air bag wheel. Last edited by TXGREMLIN; 05-04-2020 at 03:38 PM. |

Re: steering wheel swap
What Pontiac said. Airbag style columns/wheels use a different spline than earlier ones. If it was a 94 or early wheel it would work.

Re: steering wheel swap
This is the one I put in my truck. From the 88-94 era.

Re: steering wheel swap
IIRC - most pre air bag GM steering wheels use the same spline/bolt/horn setup. So a Pontiac wheel will mount on a Chevy column. It may not match style wise however. Just be sure to get ALL the horn parts.
When I picked up a replacement steering wheel for my 75, I test fit 3 on a wheel-less column before picking one from a Blazer. I liked a Pontiac wheel but it had a square base that didn't match very well to the round Chevy column. |
