Going to be hitting the junkyards and was wondering if anyone knows
what (if any) other makes/models share the LUV's same steering shaft
diameter / spline count?
The reason I ask is that I would like to change out my non-mikado style wheel,
but all the aftermarket; Grant, APC, even MOMO etc. are tiny little wheels.
The only thing in 15-16" wheels are ultra pricey wood rimmed ones.
Soooo, Anybody know the answer? Will other Isuzu wheels work?

81 and up Luv,s and Isuzu pups, early Troopers and I Marks use the same spline and taper.

Thanks! Any idea what year is the cutoff on Troopers? They seem to be the most common in yards around here.

Not sure of year but think the cutoff would be when they dropped the box shape Trooper for the more rounded. Take your stock luv wheel to the boneyard and test on donor vehicle, or search for a Trooper power steer setup and use a smaller aftermarket wheel and have the best of both worlds.
