Kidney Bean style Steering Wheel

I know this style wheel is popular on these trucks and I saw this and thought I would pass it along.

Re: Kidney Bean style Steering Wheel

I've been looking for a wheel that would resemble the 20" Cragers

I never knew they were popular on these trucks. Never seen one before. It would bother me to not be able to wrap my fingers around the rim

Re: Kidney Bean style Steering Wheel

a great looking wheel?, how are these popular? Looks like it would be uncomfortable for hand position.

Here is who makes those. Luckily for me, they are very local I bought mine back when LMC was asking stupid money for them. Probably save over $100 NOT buying from them.
