Model TT steering wheel

[joetx]

Are all Model T steering wheels interchangeable? I need to replace my broken wheel on a TT and mine is a 17". I've seen some that are supposed to be 15" or 16". I could use the one inch clearance as my stomach isn't getting smaller!! Any help appreciated. Thanks, Joe.

Several sizes were used throughout production. Your truck might look good with one of the early small brass spider versions. They can be hard to find or expensive. I hope you find a good solution.

Do think your red painted spider has been bent upward to fit a smaller rim. The T and TT used the same steering wheel. Normally 16" and then in 1926-1927 the steering wheel spider got wider, and the rim went to 17" for the new balloon 21" tires to improve leverage. Shiny lower one in photo is the larger 17" spider and rim.

So all wheels will fit/work on an interchange. Thanks, Joe.
