gawald 30 #14 Posted July 2, 2016 For the broken steering wheel, John Deere 200 series tractors (210, 212, 214, 216) use a 3/4" hole steering wheel with 1/4" roll pin hole which is the same as my C141 steering wheel. I bought the C141 with broken steering wheel just like your tractor. Wheel Horse steering wheels that I saw for sale cost half as much as my tractor and the cosmetics were poor. The 200 series steering wheels are 3 spoke and have the right wheel diameter and height. The plastic molding is different but both WH & Deere wheels were made by Kelch Corp. I got my Deere SW on eBay for $25 including shipping. Seems Deere 200 series parts are a lot more plentiful & thus cheaper price than WH. I like OEM parts when possible but will compromise with a non OEM part until an affordable original comes along (if ever). Great acquisitions. Congratulations.
