8/5/2019 8:24:45 PM | chromeman | | | | Top of Page | We sell that exact four spoke wood model. You can also get it in a two spoke version We are a dealer for "Steering Creations". The wheel is sold separately from the hub. The wheel retails for around $150.00 and the hubs run from $50.00 to $100.00 depending on which hub is needed.( I will have to look & see which hub I used on my bus) This wheel is imported from Taiwan. We also can get wheels from Italy for lots more money. Bill Chrome Depot | Bill & Jean 1990 Marathon XL 2013-2021 2001 Marathon H3-45 #0678 2019-present

8/5/2019 9:57:24 PM | BadFitter | | | | Top of Page | Bill, don't guess you carry a heated steering wheel for winter time driving??? The older I get the more I appreciate the heated steering wheel in our Ram. It is hard to believe but I still have the driving gloves I got for my birthday 55 years ago - MG days... The driving gloves do keep my hands warmer and look way cooler than snow mittens. | | | |

8/6/2019 5:59:23 PM | lonestarace | | | SW Dimensions | Top of Page | On our 95 Prevost/96 Liberty its: 20" outside to outside, with a 4+ outset, which puts the wheel 2" from the turn signal arm when its in the low beam position. When you pull the arm to flash the hi beams it almost touches the SW | Don - 96 Liberty XL 40 " Classic" ATC Stacker Bulverde, TX

8/6/2019 7:09:10 PM | chromeman | | | | Top of Page | Les, A heated steering wheel is in the works. Don't know how far out, but I will let you know. Don, most after market steering wheels are 18" diameter. Larger diameter wheels are not as important as they used to be, before power steering. Lots of leverage was needed to turn the darn thing at low speeds. I will check to see what dish/depth wheels are available. When I changed mine from the factory one, and I think that it looked like yours, I have had no issues with the turn signal stalk. The hub needed is a 1" diameter/ 36 spline. The Freightliner one I used, fit perfectly on the shaft and on the height of my controls. My old bus is a 1990 and I not sure if they changed the shaft, but I doubt that they did. Heck, they were still using ball & seat mounting of their wheels years after the trucking industry went to hub piloted ones. | Bill & Jean 1990 Marathon XL 2013-2021 2001 Marathon H3-45 #0678 2019-present

5/23/2024 2:47:07 PM | bobjones | | | | Top of Page | Bringing back an old thread. Anyone upgrade to a modern 4 spoke (e.g. ViP4S) on an XL? Looking to downsize the gigantic bus wheel to an 18 like the newer buses. Put in a call to VIP; but they were not very helpful. Thanks! | Adventure Bus.

5/28/2024 3:50:02 PM | jerrylshannon | | | | Top of Page | I brought my 4 spoke wooden 18" steering wheel from: www.chrome4trucks.com they have a large selection or they did when I ordered back in Feb 2022. Had to edit this post....looks like Bob's Chrome Zone at the above website is no longer in business. But I believe an 800 series SCIsteering wheel will fit the Prevost. That's what I have on my XL. I just had to slightly enlarge the holes by a fraction because the screws were a hair tight. | Jerry & Pam 93 Marathon XL40 Hillside, IL | | | | |
6/1/2024 7:37:51 AM | bobjones | | | | Top of Page | Thanks Jerry! I will look into the SCIwheel. Quick follow up: SCIhas a prevost hub : part # 835 for the 800 series wheels. https://steeringcreations.com/835/ It would be nice to swap out the 21" wheel for something smaller to reduce driver fatigue and feel less like a transit bus driver Thanks | Adventure Bus.

I am leaning towards a wood version, but there are a bunch of cool ones. https://steeringcreations.com/wood-1/ | Mike Giboney 1992 Prevost Country Coach #60187 | | | | |
