I am building a Studebaker pickup on a S-10 chassis, and I am using all of the S-10 that I can. This will be my daily driver, so I am using the frame along with the engine and trans, firewall, floors and steering. Does anybody know what other steering wheels will fit the S-10 shaft? Thanks, Brian
just about anything gm of the same year. if it's not an air bag s-10 you've got a ton of options. mike
with a kit from nightprowlers or moon or even Grant you can run some cool aftermarket vinyl or metalflake wheels
Found a steering column complete with wheel sitting in the Dez a few months back. Splines at both ends were 9/16" - 36 count at the bottom end. The main part of the shaft was 3/4" OD and tapered down at each end. I posted a pic and was told it was an S-10 column. Regular Chevy columns are 3/4" x 36 spline at the bottom and 3/4" by a fewer spline count at the top. The main shaft is 3/4" OD all the way, no tapers although it has a rounded step at the wheel spline area that i 5/8" OD. If you do have 9/16" splines at the steering wheel you may be able to cut the steering wheel spokes off at the hub then clean the hub up so you can drill it to adapt to the standard three bolt pattern for aftemarket steering wheels. The full size Chevy wheels do have room to drill and tap for 1/4-20 threads so that a three bolt wheel can be directly adapted. Not sure about the hub on the 9/16" shafts. Here's a couple pics that may help. The hub shown is a full size car hub, note the three black dots . . . that's where it gets drilled for a three bolt wheel. The 2nd pic shows the steering wheel end on the 9/16" each end shaft. 3rd is of the complete 9/16" column. Last one shows the steering wheel that was on the 9/16" column as found.
