All the ones that I have seen are too small......doesn't have to be leather, but I need the extra grip that they provide......(no power steering)..... Anyone???? 1964 C-30 http://s1179.photobucket.com/albums/x383/autoart3/64%20one%20ton%20dually%20flatbed/

I’m not sure of the diameter of the stock truck wheel. http://www.amazon.com/Superior-58-0...mp;ie=UTF8&qid=1301089721&sr=1-3 It’s shown on page 4 of this thread.

I meant to measure my steering wheel today, but forgot. 16.5" is the biggest cover that I have been able to find....I'm thinking it will take 20" or better. Thanks for the link tho.
