OK I just swapped the Steering Wheel in my Rescue Squad from the stock 19" to a Stock 1962 17" from a pickup.

There are a few differances, but that can be swapped over. the 65 wheel is on the left and the 62 on the right.

Its mostly the back side of the wheel, but I could swap the parts between the two.

Still the 17" is too big so I guess I'll try to find a smaller aftermarket wheel, in Utah you can go as small a 12", and on a big truck that could be a problem, but I have the Power Steering on the Rescue Squad so it should be fine. The problem I have is my oversize gut is up against the wheel all the time, with the 17" wheel I only got 1" more room.

Just so every one know that cool sterring wheel puller I used is a Snap-On Tools Steering Wheel Puller set.
