According to this guy:

He seems pretty knowledgable and seems to have been R&R steering wheels and other parts during his pursuit of a nice clean steering wheel too.

Good luck.


<B>Are 944 and 911 wheels interchangeable?
Yes, with qualifications. Sometime, I believe around the mid-80's (please help me here, I need more precise data), the wheels became interchangeable. Before that, the 924/944/928 wheels had a smaller spline area where the wheel hub meets the steering column. If you have your wheel off, here's how to tell:

Here's a quickie description: in the 911-style wheel, the splines start directly at the edge of the hub in a diameter of about 1". In the early 944-style wheel, the splines are recessed back into the hub (if you remove the steering wheel and are looking at the back of it), with the initial 1" opening closing to a diameter of about 5/8". (Again, if any of you can get me proper metric measurements, spline count, etc. I'd be grateful, and I'll even offer you a little discount on your next purchase for exact measurements!)
