    Can’t wait to hear about the install.

    Mike, any update on the install?

    Thanks in advance.

    The plan was to get the ViP12 (18″)…but with so many options….we are waiting to see your pics before we order .

    Mine is done, and it is a much different driving experience. Very happy with the upgrade.

    How was the swap, straightforward or complicated?

    Did the wheel/hub fit perfectly?

    Did you need a steering wheel puller?

    Any tips?

    Thanks in advance.

    Relative to some of the other things i had to do, i would say it was easy. First step is parking the bus with the wheel as straight as you can get it. Pull the horn cover off, Loosen the nut, I took an aluminum bar 3/8″ x 1″ x 3″ long and drilled 2 holes in it to pull the wheel off the shaft. Next I assembled the wheel and hub kit, dropped it over the shaft, put the nut on and torqued it down. All in all it took me maybe 2 hours and 3 cups of coffee. The driving experience is very different now. I have always been a fan of my Brody knob, i don’t think i need it with this smaller wheel.

    Thanks, Mike!

    I appreciate the info.

    That is exactly what I was hoping to hear.

    I will place an order tomorrow.

    I cannot wait to move to an 18″ wheel.
