Steering Wheel?

Did ford only offer the two sizes of steering wheel on 61-66 trucks? The XL "2x4" and the "XXL" 4x4 versions. Or did the ps equiped ones come with a smaller diaimeter? The reason I ask is that I like the styleing of these wheels but they are far to large (I have PS so the turning force is not a problem).

Thanx, JJ

My dads 65 f250 has power steering and the "xl" wheel, I dont recall seeing a smaller wheel. His 65 F-100 has the same wheel also.

The 61-63 trucks had a 17 inch wheel for the 2 wheel drives ( Black or white) and these were actually 61-63 Falcon wheel part numbers. The 4x4's had a 18 inch wheel in black or white. The 18 inch was strictly a truck wheel. I can't give you any info on the 64-66's because I don't have a set of later books yet.

I forgot to mention the 4x4' wheel was a 4 spoke.
