Steering Wheel For A Series 3 What Fits

[Brian the Sn@il]

I'm sorry, its me again :(

You must be getting fed up with all the questions :(

I'm having problem obtaining a replacement steering wheel for my 1978 Series 3 88 Derv :(

Landrover Parts have them on back order with no delivery date :(

Craddocks don't seem to stock them either :(


Any ideas. I don't want to spend too much as there's nothing worse looking than a Brand Spanking Steering Wheel with the rest of the cab looking Used if you know what i mean :lol:

Briliant guys :)

Its just back from MOT test and Its passed with flying colours ! ( After 10 days of work )

All i need is a steering wheel ( smaller one )

Im going to ring round a few scrap yards now with the info you have provided me with its a done job :)

Hi,

I have one! (15in and suitably old)

No cracks, ans the spline is in good condition. There is a bit of a scuff on the bottom, but when cleaned up it should be about right in terms of age to fit a spruced up car (not too new, but not shagged!)

The center is there but has an area of rust where its got under the vinal/paint.  This would really need re painting, but then may look newer than the wheel.

I can email a photo if you PM me an email address.

Say £20 and whatever it costs to post, and I can post it tomorrow (firday at the latest)

I only got it this weekend as I bought a dressed bulkhead for my S3 project and it had the wheel on it.

[Brian the Sn@il]

Arrived today :)

Its Spot on :)  Many thanks for that.

Ill take a pic of the one that it is replaceing :lol:

[carbore]

Great, glad you like it.

You have made a lot more progress on your project than mine! so far I have only acquired bits and put them on the shelf, and got a large collection of AF tools form farm sales and car boots!

Although I did drive the thing yesterday as I needed to go to B&Q for some plasterboard. It was perfect for that job, if a little scary in rush hour traffic!

[Brian the Sn@il]

Only driven mine from our yard to next door ( mot ) didnt drive on any roads.
Bit different fom im used too, but great fun all the same :)

Cant beilieve it only took 10 mins to change the steering wheel :)

Im waiting for a nice sunny day to take some pics, we have put some carpet on the floor inside, it looks very plush now :lol:

Brian, carpet BAD idea landrovers designed to let in water wherever possible. No carpet, not mats and it dries out quickly, otherwise you'll be replacing footwells. :)
