So Ive really wanted to a tilt steering wheel conversion in my truck but I had a rondom thought. Would it be easier to just make the steering wheel pop off? The main reason I want a tilt wheel is because my legs hit every time i get in or out. Didnt know what you thought.

I think ctmandu has a tilt column in his truck, and Grant make kits to take the wheel off, so either one is an option.

If you get the pop off wheel, make SURE the lock engages each time you put it on. NO fun when it comes off while driving...

Thanks ctmando. I have been wanting to do this for a while but the only problem is i cant get the old column out. I dont know why they used phillips screws to put that thing on there. :x Have you had any problems pulling yours out or have you yet?
