As a man, I don't think I have ever been excited to sew something until now! :) Thank you great video! I have a 3rd gen 4runner I plan to build and this will be one of my upgrades!

@christopherbrown5338 5 месяцев назад

I was looking forward to doing mine as well but it kind of sucked for me.

@AndrewBrill1 Год назад

Always good to see your ocd...related to all things engineering!!!

@SpeedysGarage Год назад

Thanks 👍

Very nice job! Looks great! My steering wheel leather is still in good shape, but it can get a bit sticky in the summer when the humidity is high or my hands are damp. I'm going to give it a good cleaning and treat the leather with a conditioner and see if that does the job.

@christopherbrown5338 5 месяцев назад

I ordered one today & removed the wheel. I used a pick tool like yours to pull the T-30's back once loose, worked great. My magnet would not pull them out enough.

@@SpeedysGarage Wish we could meet up sometime. I'm near by & would like to see your 4Runner in person.

@christopherbrown5338 6 месяцев назад

Years ago I did the exact same thing. A cover like your old one on top of the factory one.

@Rowan_12FU Год назад

Looks good.

I’m sending you my 98 4R steering wheel core 😊. When you have some time??? Haha. Nice work man.

@alexandersmith6299 Год назад

I have a Edge and that’s the same steering wheel wrap from the factory that it came with looks great

@davestewart9146 Год назад

You did an awesome job 👍😁

Dang that turned out amazing!

@eljefeslash Год назад

Great content, as always! The steering wheel looks great. Mine is rough looking, and the previous owner put a decent slip-on cover over it, but I've been wanting to do it "right" like you did. I feel a little less uneasy about removing my steering wheel now after watching how you pulled it. I replaced my arm rest cover as well (with some similar material), but I used some extra egg crate mattress foam for the inside. Worked great at first, but that foam is so worn now that my elbow sinks right down to the plastic, so I may try some of that material you mentioned. Where did you have yours done (upholsterer)?

@SpeedysGarage Год назад

Neoprene is what I planned to use as it's dense. I had a local upholstery shop do it because of the unique staples required.

@Cgtlfa 7 месяцев назад

Yeah that steering wheel cover is straight from China. Got one on eBay for 11 bucks, took 2 weeks to come from China but I was impressed with the “leather” seemed good quality to me

I’m trying to find this on eBay. Do you recall who the seller was?

Awesome video. Your attention to detail is seriously impressive. I've got a 99 Tacoma SR5 I'm rehabbing right now. It still has the factory steering wheel cover and I'm looking to do a perforated leather cover like yours. One thing I noticed is that the factory cover rotates around the metal of the steering wheel, like if you were twisting a throttle on a motorcycle. I assume there was some kind of adhesive or something under there that's gotten gummy over time. Is there any way to address that before putting on an aftermarket cover? Would sewing the leather cover over top of the loose factory one lock it down better and keep it still? Any advice you can give would be appreciated!

@SpeedysGarage 3 месяца назад

You may need to remove the old cover.

@gregalee 3 месяца назад

@@SpeedysGarage Thanks for replying! I suspected I might. I'm pretty new to this. If I remove the old cover, I assume it's kind of thick. Much thicker than the thin leather wraps meant to go over it. What would you do if you were in my situation? Is there a padding you buy or something before putting on an aftermarket leather cover layer? Or do you just cut the factory cover, remove it, lay down some Super 77 or other adhesive and then put it back on before sewing on a leather cover? Again, thanks for the advice. I'm very grateful for it.

Any tips on re-wrapping a shift knob? I have a 96 SR5 5spd, it turned gummy & fell apart...

@SpeedysGarage Год назад

For what they cost, I'd just buy a new shift knob.

@FranciscoGonzalez-ro7ht 9 месяцев назад

@@SpeedysGarageI'm sorry man that, I know the feeling, my 83 4WD got stolen last year, and never heard from it, I didn't have insurance on her, so everything it's gone. Next time I'll do things differently.
