Cherokee steering wheel on my Comache?

[benevolentelephant]

Hi there -

 

I have an '87 mache with the basic 2-spoke steering wheel.

 

I'd love to fit the nicer 3-spoke wheel from an early Cherokee, but will it fit?

 

Thanks!

 

 

BTW, big thanks to those who helped me out over aligning my steering a week or two back!!

Yup.

benevolentelephant, I just did this swap this past weekend. I picked-up the 3-spoke leather-wrapped Cherokee wheel at the local bone yard for $21.

 

The horn mechanism is not identical between the two wheels but the retrofit is easy. Make sure you get all the little parts under the center cap and make note of how they go together-you may want to snap a couple pictures for reference during the install.
