Steering wheel help
Does anyone know if an earlier model (57-60) steering wheel spline will fit our 61-66 columns? Also, what is the dish on these earlier wheels?
I found a source for new steering wheels and if the earlier models have less dish, it might solve some of my interior clearance problems.
Thanks in advance.

Steering wheel help
Skip, I used a Grant 14 1/2 inch with a 3 inch dish. Didn't put the wheel to close to my legs and I can still see the TS blinker. This wheel is for Mustangs (Wood and Stainless) but bolts on the old trucks and has everything to make the horn work.

Here's the wheel I'm looking at. It's a 15 inch wheel, with a 3 1/2 inch dish, and they have another version that has black spokes instead of the silver. I can get it through Summit for $105 with the mounting kit.
