Grant steering wheel swap?

[Turbo53]

Does anyone know if the steering wheel can be easily swapped for a smaller hot rod grant unit?

[Don Coatney]

With enough money anything can be done. But keep in mind the reason for the large steering wheel is to give additional leverage with no power assisted steering. A steering wheel half the size will be twice as hard to turn.

As one who has to muscle around a bigger truck...its more than 2x harder I'd bet.

Where there's a will, there's a way...

also, the trick to turning is to keep moving, even if it's only at a snail's pace

hard to do whilst parallel parking at a car show!

I don't know about the cars...and this appears to be a posting from the car side....but if you are using one of these trucks you often need all the wheel you can get. The big wheel just takes a bit of getting used to. But you do get used to it. I can only imagine how miserable a small diameter wheel would be in my truck.
