SS Steering wheel for LT Model - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Steppenwolf1980 · 12-21-2010, 03:02 AM

Hi guys,

I want to upgrade my LT1 Camaro with all the leather parts. Can I use the leather wrapped steering wheel from the SS model? Of course I need the additional harness for the radio controls, but does the wheel itself fit in the LT model? I guess so, at least they look exactly the same and I can't imagine that they used a different steering rack in the SS... I'll appreciate any sure answer!

Cheers, Marcus

Im not sure if its a direct bolt on the mechanical side but the SS is made into the steering wheel itself. Something you may want to consider. I would recommend just get the 2LT steering wheel. Its leather. Just some food for thought.
BTW welcome to Camaro5!

Thanks for the welcome! I don't know if I undestood that right now, but my aim is not to have the "SS" badge in my car, but a leather wrapped steering wheel. I am asking because there are some used SS steering wheels offered at ebay, so I wonder if I just could get one and mount it in my car. Has nothing to do with the badge, I don't care what's written there. Just need to know if I can buy one used SS steering wheel for my LT. Thanks!

I dont see why mechanical you cant however the SS badge on the 2SS steering wheel can not be removed. That's why I suggest of you could find a used 2LT steering wheel. Its leather and no worries of an SS badge

DSV (a sponsor on this site) makes a leather wheel that can be customized to your specifications. They make some very nice stuff. Heres a link.. http://www.***********.com/dsv-customs PM Indpowr if you have any questions and he can help you out.

Sorry, but I guess you don't get the point: I don't care to have a SS sign on the steering wheel or not. The badge doesn't matter at all. I just want to know if I can mount the steering wheel from the V8 into a V6, because I've been offered a used one. Forget about the badge.

@Maro: Thanks, I know DSV. But I don't want a customized steering wheel either. I just want to know if a OEM steering wheel from the V8 will work to build in my V6.

The 2LT comes with the exact leather steering wheel that is in the SS without the SS logo. That is the one he is suggesting you buy.

Either one will fit.

yes it will fit...trying to get the controls to work will require additional parts...but the steering wheel itself will fit...

just get the 2LT steering wheel

Steppenwolf1980, YES the one you have been offered will fit, and since you don't care if it has the logo on it or not, go for it, its all up to you.....oh and btw, Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to Camaro5. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in it...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's and wive's here don't care....and take it easy.

oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!!
