Steering wheel
Scott, I replaced my steering wheel with an 18 incher from VIP. My
problem was that I have too much belly and too little leg and with
the smaller steering wheel I am at least backed off of it enough to
get a grip when and if. I hope never to regret the move but it seemed
like dealing with that big wheel was really going to be a day to day
mile by mile issue for me so lets keep the fingers crossed. VIP was a
very nice outfit to deal with and I do recommend them for a new wheel
if you go that direction. I guess you keep you belts new and as
close of an eye on the pump as you can.
