The deuce steering wheel measures just over 20" and my 5 ton steering wheel measures 17 and 3/4". My question is, can you put a 5 ton steering wheel onto the deuce column easily? Also are the centers (horn button) the same in the deuce and 5 ton?

yes and yes for the 800 series 5 tons steering wheels.. You'll need the correct steering wheel puller to get the deuce wheel off though.

the 20" is there for a reason, it saves you on turning without power steering

but i would think it would be fit... but i wouldn't know... :cry:

My power steering project will utilize a 5 ton steering wheel. However, I am installing a real hyro power steering unit, so effort will not be an issue and I don't need the mechanical advantage that the larger wheel gives you.

Saturn Surplus has the pullers for sale...nice units for a decent price. Even comes in a wooden case.
