Anyone know the proper fitment size of universal hub for a 1996 ford ranger xlt so i can install a new aftermarket steering wheel? I havent been able to find the specs i need.

also, if anyone knows anything i should know before i take it on please tell me.

btw, im also installing projector headlights, so if anyone knows how to wire them, let me know.

Thanks!

For the Steering wheel, you can get a mounting kit from Summit if they make it. Best way to go.

Actually, you'll probably be able to find steering wheels easily, the main problem is not your safety (if that is not a concern to you), it is your inspection sticker. In Texas (some metros, not all), you cannot pass inspection with your Airbag light on. This means that if you really want to keep an aftermarket steering wheel, you'll have to switch it back to original every time Inspection rolls around.
