[AT] IHC Grain truck steering wheel question.

[Cecil Bearden]

Thanks, that saves me from pulling a pickup steering wheel. Maybe I will 
get a salvage wheel, cut the center out, and bolt a smaller wheel onto it.

The shafts on mine are larger than on the pickups, guessing 7/8 vs 5/8.  I would think that a truck junk yard or shop would be able to come up with something suitable, maybe from a newer truck with smaller wheels.

I can get a Grant steering wheel adapter and 13-1/2 wheel for less than $100 on eBay, but without knowing if the splines will fit, it is just a guess.  I have a couple of IHC pickups in the junk line, but have not pulled the steering wheels off them.  The pickups also had a large wheel, so If I pulled one, I still would have to get a smaller wheel.<<
