Steering wheel in a bad state

nigxls · Aug 3, 2023

Hi, my steering wheel is in a poor condition as in breaking down.
It's lived its 25 years on a farm so god knows what it has been in contact with.
Anyone have any idea if it could be saved or rejuvenated somehow?
Looks like it is bubbling and starting to crack.
Don't really want to fork out for a new wheel as I'm in the process of replacing crossmember section and also engine work, outrigger replacment etc, you know the score.

Is it a type A, B or C ?

Sorry I am new to this. It’s a soft wheel on a 1998 defender 90.

Hi.
Yours looks like a type B/48 spline

You can't really 'repair' that to be honest.
You could get a cover or keep an eye on eBay.
To be sure, to be sure, whip yours off and count the splines..

Thanks I looked at the video earlier, maybe it can wait until I get the vehicle structurally sound. Also need to recover the seats too.
