Matt_H:
anyone know if a later defender steering wheel will fit an early 90 (c reg)

Anyone got anything suitable spare?  I just can't live with this 12 inch thing that came with it!

Have a look here: http://www.web-rover.co.uk/nav.php?p=articles/steeringwheels

Your C reg would have had wheel type A when new.

Hi Matt.

It's all to do with splines. Your C reg should have a column with 36 splines, whereas later defenders have 48 splines (generally speaking - they are Land Rover products and it can depend on what was around on the day of assembly!).

If it helps I've got a 36 spline Defender 200 2 spoke genuine wheel going spare. Not brilliant condition but very usable.

Cheers,

Jez

Matt_H:
I noticed that an old disco wheel did fit but the plastic surround caught on the back of the wheel so without mods wouldn't fit (didnt really fancy a blue wheel anyway!)

What's your wheel look like Jez, is it the old huge plastic bus one like mine would have originally had or is it more like the later 'rubber' ones

Thanks
Matthew

Matt_H:
