The Rubber Duck 006 Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 I've been pondering a Way to make the Inside of "THE GREEN HORNET " Look like an old school Mack. We tried the old school thirteen speed shifter knob but it won't hook up to the 4 air supply lines on the tranny. So I was thinking of maybe getting a old Mack Steering wheel and seeing if it would fit. Any thoughts or suggestions if an old Steering wheel would fit would be greatly appreciated. Now remember She's a 2016 Mack CHU613 PINNACLE for reference Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73557-steering-wheel-question/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsmackpaul Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 Would want to make sure the wheel has enough room There isn't a huge amount of extra room on a R model However I have seen smaller diameter old style steering wheels so I think it could be done as long as there isn't push buttons and things built into the wheel you already have Paul 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73557-steering-wheel-question/#findComment-542228 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure on the diameter of an older Mack steering wheel but I think the one on the truck now is 20-22 inches I believe Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73557-steering-wheel-question/#findComment-542243 Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Day Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 Also it would be a good idea to pull the wheel off and measure the splined shaft older columns were 1 1/8” splines newer shaft splines dropped to 1” not sure about 2016 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73557-steering-wheel-question/#findComment-542244 Share on other sites More sharing options...

h67st Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 On the older Macks, the manual steer trucks usually had 22" wheels and the power steer trucks had 20". 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73557-steering-wheel-question/#findComment-542261 Share on other sites More sharing options...
