Steering wheels

Post by excalibur »

OK, what can I use (scrapyard find) to replace the bus size wheel thats in my van. The steering is very light with this thing, so something about 12 inch i recon will be ideal.

Bear in mind I have spent years with old non power steered land rovers and can handle them with little wheels so this should be a dodle with a 12 inch or smaller. Dont want to spend silly money on something new, but I should imagine the VW parts bin supplied something that would be a straight fit and a few quid from the scrappies

I got an Audi leather wheel. About £15 off ebay. Off an 89 Audi 80. Need to mess about with the spacer thing to make indicators and horn work.
