Does anyone have any experience or thoughts on how I might clean this up a bit? Trying to adapt stock early bronco steering wheel to ‘79 tilt column. Do I just need to buy an adapter kit for a 78 to 91 Ford? (that’s how they are listed on eBay and other sites)

Or is it gonna be more difficult than that?

That’s tricky, you may also have to trim some of the shroud back on the column to get the trim ring in there.

Ok, well after I totally dismantled, dismembered, and disfigured the rubber plastic from the ‘79 steering wheel trying to make the little ring on the very very bottom adapt to the stock steering wheel, I ended up going to Hobby lobby... yeah yuck it up, I went to Hobby lobby and I got some 1/8th inch black foam, some heavy duty double sided tape, and some black vinyl.

I ended up using a cut off wheel and cut the very bottom of the metal neck off of the original steering wheel and used it as a spacer and cam canceler and then I used the foam to step up from the smaller diameter to larger and then I covered the foam with black vinyl.

For the amount of time I spent on this piece of crap, that’s all I will notice but some of you other guys might not notice it at all!!! Lol!!!
