Would a steering wheel from a 67-72 ford truck fit in a 73-79 style truck? In my 1975 ford f150 the steering wheel is really cracked and I was wondering if a wheel would fit out of a older series truck as they seem to be built better and don’t crack as much. I like the older wheels better which is why I don’t want a universal one. Thanks! ---

I used a company named Classics for parts for my 65 GMC.Bet you could get your answer from one of their Ford parts books ---

Since there is no airbag involved, the swap would probably work. I can’t imagine a wheel would cost more than a few bucks from a u-pull-it boneyard, so it might be worth the gamble. Just take a close look at the mounting bolt on your truck, noting the size and number of splines, and compare it to an older one. ---
