I've been aching to replace the stock steering wheel in my truck for a while now. The factory wheel is way too thin and HUGE in diamater.
Fortunately for me, while browsing the junkyard for a motor/regulator for my Accord, I scored a newer style truck steering wheel out of an 89' Suburban, and I even got the deluxe wheel with fake stitching!
The new wheel is a little bit smaller in diamater, but the rim is much thicker. It makes it so much more enjoyable to drive.
I've also been gathering information and building a parts list for my upcoming 6.0L swap. Plans at this point are for a factory LQ9 (345 HP) and a 4L80E trans. The rear end will be getting 3.90 Richmond gears and an Eaton Posi. I'm planning to leave the engine stock for a while and just enjoy it. In the future, I'll be putting L92 heads (they flow 320+ CFM, STOCK!) and a nice cam along with headers on the truck.
