What years of GM truck steering wheels fit our motorhomes?  I put a
wheel off an 89 truck and it worked great :)  Hard finding another
one...most scrap yards have crushed all their 80's vehicles.  Seems to
be plenty of 90's wheels but curious if the spilnes are the same....
Thanks in Advance.....

Just about any GM steering wheel WITHOUT an air bag. I have an GMC S15 / Chevy S-10 one that I really like. They can be had at most junk yards for $20 or less. Mine was $10.

That's why I liked the 80's wheels. Most (if not all) were
pre-airbag.....easy to bolt on, looks cool, comfortable. Last one I
found on eBay was under $50. Very rare to find today. Most yards no
longer have 80's vehicles....and most all 90's units have airbags.
Just trying to find a good looking "OEM" style wheel for under $100.
Thanks for the tips......will continue the search!

Mine came off of a 93 S-15. I also owned a 91 S-10 and it did not have an air bag.

A couple of times a year I go to the local Pick-n-Pull's. (They have a "semi-annual half off sale".) Around here, I normally will find about a half dozen wheels like the ones in these pictures:

<http://m000035.blogspot.com/2011/05/pick-n-pull-trip.html>

My cost for the wheels during a half off sale: $7.00. (Plus a couple of dollars to get in, gas to get there and my time.)

This site will tell you when these sales are, just not that far in advance: <http://www.picknpull.com/events_and_specials.aspx>

I try and mix and match Good "GMC" horn buttons with the best wheels. I sold the wheel I needed for my '77. Shocked I'll have to pick up another one in the spring.

I had several from Chevy and GMC vehicles, mostly from S-10 Blazers and
vans. All were black and bolt right on. There are still available here in
the Men's Mall.
