Road Runner Nest

I have a regular stock wheel in my SS and want a Tuff for the usual reasons. What does it take to swap out the old one for an original (or repro) Tuff wheel?

Just need the wheel, horn switch, horn button, and adaptor collar.

i think you can pick up a repro and it may come with the install kit, but then you have to purchase the horn button separate - if not, it's made by grant, so i'd guess that a regular install kit would work

check with dales cuda shop. i think their kit is complete or just may need the collar. the collar is easy to find.

I just bought a repro tuff wheel for a steal on E-bay because it was allegedly blemished. It's the foam vinyl type, but mimics the original look.

Anyway, this is going on a '73 Road Runner. I can't seem to locate the collar/adaptor anywhere. Is it the same as the E-body one (accordion style)? Is there an aftermarket universal adaptor? This does not have the Grant-style bolt pattern, it's not a Grant.

Also, the horn button seems to snap on and be pretty solid. How the heck does it honk the horn? I presume you press the center button, but it doesn't really flex. Is there a spring that bounces it back up or something? I don't get it at all. Or does it just down like a millimeter around the edge to blow the horn?

Okay, just bought the "smooth" style Tuff-wheel adapter off E-bay since I believe the "accordion" style is for E-bodies only. Hope I guessed right.

my 72 came with a crappy looking tuff wheel with adapter...Not sure mine will work on ur e body but I think i still kept the adapter around...So if the one you ordered doesnt work send me a pm...I switched to the 3 tier padded...much happier with it.

Smooth is correct for a 71, not sure about 73
