I have two '75s with the big stock steering wheels. Somewhere I read that the LUV has an odd spindle pattern on the steering wheel and smaller replacement wheels are hard to come by. Is there a replacement kit available at part stores or from JC Whitney that is less than $50 that I can buy or is it a hit and miss on Ebay?

I don't kno the part number off hand, but only thing you gotta do is to call Billet Specialties and they kno exactly what adapter you will need.

Heres the number: 800 245 5382

I have an old GT leather wheel that came with my LUV. I took it off a few months ago and was surprised to find no adapter on it. its an old wheel from back in the 80's but I sure would like to know a part number for it.
