i really like the feel of the 13" grant wheel. but, i hate the cheap-assed horn button that never works, or stays where it belongs. this is way cooler!

Sure looks like something that would look good on my truck as well.

i know there are rules about selling stuff on forums. but, i could make more.........just sayin'. are there many people out there running this style steering wheel? i really didnt figure there were for a couple different reasons. first, it does a good job of blocking your view of the speedo. and second, alot of our trucks had cruise with the controls on the wheel.

this showed up today in the name of leak prevention, and ease of maintenance:

i swore a long time ago i would never run an auto-tranny without a cast pan again. keeping good to myself on my word. its just the cheapie SUMMIT pan with no logo. but, it is way better than the flimsy leak-o-matic stock pan. not to mention the drain-plug. i HATE dropping the tranny pan when its full of fluid. so much easier, less messy, when its already empty.

you can't put a grant or any aftermarket steering wheel on a 91-93 truck because of the clock spring. aftermarket wheels on 89-90 only

You can put one on a 91 if it is non-tilt.
