No thanks. I am not a fan of wood grain tbh, especially not the nasty *** wood grain that came in these trucks

I will probably just buy a WT wheel and then get it redone, most budget friendly methinks.

I like the WT wheels, simple, tough, and comfortable. I don't plan on upgrading to anything fancy because I'll just ruin it, I'm very tough on interiors.

Nope a leather wrapped wheel is a must for me. I love the feel of it.

Edit: I'm a bit of a snob actually, leather interior with a center console is a must......

bahahaha

I too prefer leather wrapped wheels. Vinyl wheels just aint the same

Even my $800 Ranger has a leather wheel now. And a tinted windshield. I have standards too

And I happen to love my OEM leather 02 wheel <3

My air bag cover is showing signs of splitting and thats worrisome as replacements may be hard to find, or in no better shape

If I got leather the dogs would probably gnaw it off.

Thank you, you can go along your way now.

That is just me though, I have expensive tastes.
Although I am not sure how expensive my taste really is if I'm still driving a 22 year old truck with no plans of moving forward.....

Will a 03+ wheel work on the earlier trucks? I've done a little research and not sure but I don't think they'll bolt right on?

I've been looking at the leather Grant 61034 replacement wheel for my 00. They only come in black but I can dye the air-bag to match and the color difference won't bother me as I'm not that **** (unless I'm flying to outer space )
