Late model wheel horn issues - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

skokie · 12-03-2024, 05:19 PM

I am installing a late model steering wheel like in the picture in this thread. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...highlight=horn

Having horn issues and I think I maybe missing some pieces. The column is a tilt wheel from 69-72. Looking for some assistance.

Thanks in advance!

Found this video. I dont have that red piece he is using to hold the spring in. I tried it by placing the spring in but no horn.

Do you have the green or white plastic piece with the circular contact? I seem to recall its the cancelling cam. Here's a few pics w/ some of the needed bits. Videos too...

The first picture is the design you need. The other pics show how I was able to convert what I recall was used with the wheels like you are using.

Thanks for the info. Looks like I am missing the red piece and that silver piece that goes on the end of the spring. Any ideas where I can get one? Parts board?

Here are a few more pictures that may help. The red ring compresses the spring and snaps into place.

Hey Jim

Does that long silver piece have to go in there as well or do I leave that out?

Thanks!

It has been 10 years, but I am 80% that I left it out.
