| Cost - Steering Wheel Replacement |
| |
Since I bought the tilt steering column for my girlfriend and she wasn't planning
on using the steering wheel, I figured I would put it on my ride since it was in a lot better shape. So, the
initial outlay of cash wasn't all that much money.
The install is very straightforward and requires some basic hand tools, plus a steering wheel puller.
There are no hidden costs with this installation, only if you decided to purchase the puller versus renting it
from the auto parts store.

| Cost - Offset |
| |
| To offset the cost of the buildup, I sold off the old steering wheel.
There weren't really any more parts that could be sold during the build-up of this section.

| Conclusions |
| |
The total time should be around 1 hour all said and done. This is a
relatively quick project to complete and you shouldn't run into any issues. I did end up having
to get a new plate for the horn since mine was bent, but that was about it, everything else seemed
to work out fine.
As you can see, the offset for this project was low, but it all helps when you are trying to
finance the new things. I ended up with a new steering wheel for my rig and she ended up with a
tilt column in her Jeep. All in all, everyone made out good.
