If i replaced the stearing wheel with say a wood one made for a diffrent car, would it work. will the parts all fit.
Exactly, Most Of The Time The Turn Signal Posts Will Short Out Because They're Not Lining Up With The Terminals On The Back Of The Wheel. Most Old Fords Wheels Will Work, Other Than That You'll Prolly Need An Adapter Kit W/ An Aftermarket Wheel
Im not sure what a after market wheel is? im new to cars, and all this stuff. cause i was thinking some thing like this Classic Grant 213 Hard Wood Steering Wheel. Has a walnut finished with finger grip and chrome spokes. Measures 13.5” in diameter and 3.75” dish or some thing like this, would this be a good idea?
Aftermarket, meaning non factory. A company that mass produces mostly universal parts (steering wheels in this case) and the associated hardware to make those parts fit a specific car. Being a Grant, the wheel in your picture will work fine. Ohh, and it's not the turn signal that grounds out, it's the contact for the horn. The turn signals more then likely won't cancle on it's own if you don't get the right kit for the wheel though.
If i Got the steering wheel, with the right adaptore kit, would i be better off on ebay or a auto parts shop?i think i have been spelling steering wrong..sry
I would buy local unless the ebay seller is clear on the fit, might even want a guarantee. Local purchase can be delt with faster of corse.
nice thing about buying local is if it dosen't fit you can probably take it back. even if you get a guarantee on ebay. it'll take a while to get it, then if it dosen't fit and they let you return it you'll still pay for the shipping both ways.
Thanx for the tips...well when i typed in stearing wheel in on ebay only a couple things showed up, so i thought to look back and see how other people spelled it on the replys..sry hope u dont think im an idiot... well after i get my car back from the autobody shop, ill go to a local store and see what they have.
Nahhh, just cause your unedgamacated doesn't make you an idiot .j/k Yea I have discovered that there are many ways to search on ebay, too many sometimes.
I was wondering if any 1 had a pic of the original Maverick STEERING wheel? cause i dont think mine is original? i really need to get a new one.. i think the previous owner Glued parts of it together after parts fell off.
I tossed my factory one yeeaaarrss ago. Not to crazy about the factory ones. Sorry, no pics...just an opinion.
