Default Re: comfort grip (sport wheel) steering wheel for 70

The correct one has a notch...as do all 69/70 Chevrolet 3 spoke wheels including the walnut, rosewood, and comfortgrip. The one without a notch is for either an oldsmobile 4 spoke wheel, or a 63-65 Corvette wheel with 1 piece spokes. You can't use the flush type hub (non-notched) with the comfortgrip wheel because it won't sit flush due to the lower spoke being separate from the horizontal spokes... Blame Ralph Nader for that one... after 65 it was required so that the wheel could "break away" during a severe crash. Oh, the correct part # you need is 3937896. I may have an extra around here if you don't have the right one. -JB
