Im gonna be removing the old sterring wheel on my 90 rs and installing a Grant steering Wheel. The old one has an air bag and I was just wondering if there was any precautions I can take to prevent the air bag from shooting out at me during removal lol. I also read that you need some speacial tool to remove part of the steering assembly, what tool is this? Im changing the ignition switch too so thats why I ask.

Where do you guys buy your Grant steering wheels from? Im just looking for a place with a good price. Thanks

 

Ok disconect the battery then holding the air bag part is 4 torx head screws. Unscrew and then you have the nut holding the wheel on. Now if you are by any Advance Auto, that tool to remove is a steering wheel puller which they loan out and they sell Grant Wheels as we......

 

Cool Thanks Alot, I dont have a battery so thats one step done haha Thanks again

 

Here's a tech article that I wrote for installing a Grant wheel:
Installing a new steering wheel

This article is for a non-airbag thirdgen, but once you get the airbag off, the process is pretty much the same.

 

whats the stock steering wheel size? im looking for new a new steering wheel but not sure which i like, the steering wheel id like the most if off a 90-92 camaro i believe but settle for a grant so again, what is the stock size?
and btw, the wheel on my car now isnt stock, its some Momo one thats hand leather wraped but its kinda falling apart...

 

Your also going to need a lock ring tool.

 

Not if he is just changing the Steering Wheel.

The Lock Plate removal tool is necessary to change the Ignition Lock Cylinder, or to tighten the loose Tilt Column issue, but not for changing a Steering Wheel

 

"I also read that you need some speacial tool to remove part of the steering assembly, what tool is this? Im changing the ignition switch too so thats why I ask."


You need a lock ring tool to remove the lockring, you also need to remove the directional lever and switch, and the hazzard switch button to get at the ignition lock.

 

Im gonna be replacing the ignition switcfh also so looks like i need that tool. Thanks guys!
