steering wheel

i am looking for a smaller steering wheel to go in my truck. the stock steering wheel is in my truck now, but as some of you guys know it can get rather uncomfortable while cruising so i am looking to get something smaller to cruise and just put my stock one back on when showing. any of you guys have any suggestions or maybe some pics of some smaller steering wheels?

Hope that you have power steering, a smaller Grant wheel without it can require larger armstrong power.

I've had a couple with smaller wheels and no power steering. In the days where parking was all parallel parking it was a booger, but now I can't say the manual box is really that big of an issue.... My '71 doesn't have power steering and I don't have any plans to put it on. In normal around town driving and highway cruising it's not that big of an issue. If it were to get power steering, it would be in conjunction with the MII suspension with a power rack!!!!

Lately I've seen some of the new wood-look steering wheels, IMO they really look good in our old bumpsides!!! A decent unit can be had for about $100.00, and top out in the $300.00 range for the real wood units....
