My new steering wheel

[M1008driver]

Since I retired I have traded my military fitness for corrections fitness and I am not a slim as I was. In my defense I am 53.

I bought a 15" OEM steering wheel off EBAY after researching and deciding it would work on my M1008. It not only worked, but is a pleasure to drive around with. My brother is a locksmith and the installation was easy as he has the right tools.

The steering wheel I bought is the "Chevrolet Chevy truck steering wheel Gmc Silverado C-10 Blazer C/K" and I can confirm it works.

Not bad. So the horn and everything still works?

 

[M1008driver]

The horn works even better. It must be a better connection. That was our main concern, making sure the horn worked.

Looks nice. I also like your seat cover. Where did you get that?

When I changed over to a tilt-column, it came with this wheel. Being smaller it makes the truck feel more responsive to steering. I also like thats its thicker. A great mod.

Most all of the mid 70s through early 90s GM wheels (non air bag) interchange. I put the 4 spoke common with camaros and vega gts on all my trucks except the burb which has the same one the OP posted. The GT wheel is even smaller. Great upgrade

The seat covers came from Marathon Seat Covers, and although pricey they fit great.

Hi guys,

I agree, looks good.. I have to do the same thing at some point, mine is getting old.
Also, did the steering wheel come with that camo pattern, or is that a steering wheel cover?

I like those seat covers too, but I will probably go with the smittybuilt since you can add,
MOLLE pouchs for storage.

Just went out and got a pic of my 4 spoke and dome light toooo!

 

[M1008driver]

or is that a steering wheel cover?

That's a steering wheel cover. The steering wheel is all black.

I put a new wheel on my truck last week, just got picks today. I love it, much smaller 13.5" and feels real nice in the hands. I used to have the same model on my jeep years ago. Its a Grant, picked it up for about 45 bucks at oreillys with the mil discount. not to bad and the horn works great where as previously it didnt work at all from gov liq. I also took the opportunity to re-key all the locks to include the one in the column. While I was in there I noticed the turn signal cam was on its last and I do mean last leg as well as the main assembly with the wire harness. So everything came out and got replaced and tightened down, now it feels like new. http://i922.photobucket.com/albums/ad68/HarrisonTactical/IMG_0490.jpg
