Replacing stock steering wheel with....

[87ChevR10]

Hello yall!

 

I've have emails out to Jegs, Summit, Grant and NRG among the main places who the components or whole setup. I'm sure someone has done this, but I can't seem to find clearcut answers. Trying to see if anyone here has done what I am trying to do.

 

I want to install a race-car like setup with detachable steering wheel. Which from what i see, I would need a short hub, quick release and of course the wheel.

 

What I can't seem to find is a dead set answer on what the fitment options are for our 73-87s. I have come across setup options that are very broad and don't really give me an sure fire answer.

.

Has anyone attempted this? Doesn't SEEM like a difficult job, but attaining the info to choose the right thing is. For me at least.

 

Grant offers this $239 No Wheel No Steal Vehicle Security System : http://www.grantproducts.com/products/view/219/ which is basically what I want.

 

Can anyone shed any light on this? Anyone done this themselves?

No clue. I have only added a billet/leather LeCarra in the past. Had to change the horn spring and contact. 

 

Did you make anymore headway on this MOD???

@bad bowtie2 Not yet. I've been buying parts for a year, shipping them where the truck is at. So, once I get down there I'll have a lot of updates on not only the steering wheel install, but also, a front end rebuild, new brake and fuel lines, inline electric fuel pump/regulator/cell and last but not least, new rims/tires.

 

Trying to have her here(Philly) before it gets cold. I'm not walking another f'n winter here. I walked all 2022 winter, '23 i biked. 24? No sir. God willing, I'll be pushing my baby again this fall...
