Steering wheel

Post by Busboy »

Does anyone know of a factory ford steering wheel that will fit my 67 f-100 but that is of a smaller diameter than the original 17 inch one? Yes, I have belly clearance issues. :thup:

I thought all the "factory" steering wheels were the same size for the bumps. There are definitely other options if you are willing to go with something that is not factory. Some of them are very simple replacements that have that era's look.

The steering wheels from the econoline vans are the same diameter but they are much shallower. Probably 1.5 to 2 inches shallower. They don't match up to the column exactly but it doesn't look bad. No one would probably even notice. Regardless, that will help your clearance issues and still look stock.
