Re: Looking For A New Steering Wheel JCB 3MkII

Just looked at the wheel :lol: Don't they say 'half a wheel is better than none'
But, I was just wondering if a Ferguson wheel would not fit on there? Iv'e had a 3CX and still got a fergy 35 and the wheels look very similar, the keyway may be slightly different but could be adapted.
Good luck

Re: Need your input: categories and general development of the site
