Can you recommend a replacement steering wheel ?

[1971Ginger]

I like my grant got a really wide grip with a nice size. I don't know the name but I think it's the gt model or a variation. Also I got a momo I'm not sure of the model but it's kind of like the 1 pictured above with the wood grain that was really nice but thinner and slightly slippery feeling from the laquer. I really like a wider steering wheel for control

I have a Grant GT in my 72 Volvo 1800ES that I really like as well

i have a 15" Moto Lita and love it!

JOE - Awesome Wheel. Can you share with me the part numbers for the wheel, the hub and where you found the horn button? From looking at your blog it looks like you got your wheel from Lenkradshop.de but I'd like to find a supplier closer to me here in the US. Thank you.

I'd like this information also. Would be nice for my '69 project.

great to hear you like it!

the steering wheel is called Moto Lita Mk4 leather rim 15" thin slots custom

it's on the Moto-Lita page here: http://www.moto-lita.co.uk/our-products/your-car/your-options.aspx?CB_ID=7&CR_ID=65 at kit kar wheels

and the hub is a Momo S152,155

the horn button is one the guy at lenkradshop.de had lying around and gave me for free with the steering wheel.

How hard is it to install one of those m technik steering wheels? What mods are needed?

It is if you have a Nardi or Personal wheel.

The center pad is held in place with 3 plastic "studs."  You slowly pry it off towards you from the perimeter.  Then you'll find the nut - 22 mm.

22 or 21mm.......?  think it is 21mm.  seems to be std size for all steering hub nuts.

Hey John,

 

Awesome, thanks so much that's what I needed.

Have always loved my Izumi. Thought it was thermoplastic until I came across this on a Z site:

 

 

The '240Z' ( actually, Fairlady Z, Fairlady Z-L, Fairlady 240Z, Fairlady 240Z-L, Fairlady 240ZG, Fairlady Z432 & Fairlady Z432-R steering wheel as well as all the different market models that the '240Z' name was stuck onto ) steering wheels were made by a Japanese company called 'Izumi', in the late Sixties utilising a new process that combined REAL WOOD with a resin, which was forced into a mould under extremely high pressure. The design team behind the S30-series Z, and in particular its Chief Designer Mr Yoshihiko Matsuo, pioneered this process with Izumi, only to find that it would become the victim of ever-tightening safety legislation.

I like my 320is wheel. That's just me...

Recommendation on getting the OG steering wheel nut off---thing won't budge!

 

Also, just to clarify the socket is 22mm.
