The steering wheel in my B4000 is falling apart. The padding is worn through and peeling off. When I search websites like Summit or Jegs or other aftermarket sites it says there are no steering wheels that fit. I tried searching for Ranger as well and still.... no fit.

I thought about getting a junkyard steering wheel from some Ford that is compatible, but I don't want it to say "Ford" on it.

What aftermarket steering wheels will fit?

All I really know about mine is that it doesn't say SRS and there is no airbag light on the dash so I assume there is no SRS.

Get a Mazda steering wheel out of the JY. if you have an airbag, most will say " No Fit". the steering wheel company does not want to be responsible for you removing your airbag and get into a wreck and sue them.

I thought airbags were added in '95, but wouldn't swear to it. You should be good on a '93-94 Mazda truck. A Navajo wheel would probably work as well.

94 does not have airbags. Your option is basically a junkyard or new old stock wheel, OR, you could potentially use an aftermarket one (Grant.) The install kit for an 83-88 truck will bolt onto your steering column and the wheel will bolt onto the adapter - the issue you'll run into is the horn may not work as it doesn't line up with the contacts on the earlier wheel, and cruise control may be the same deal if you have it.

I put a wood Grant GT on my 83, but yes, had to get an adapter and no horn. I eventually put the OE wheel back on. No PS and the GT was a much smaller diameter.

Yeah, I had heard about the horn issue. I'll see what car-part has.

Just thinking, dont know what the horn section of yours looks like, but maybe it will interchange with the cover from a ranger? Something to think about look at.

I was looking for one for my 01. They sell a "ring" built to accept the stock ford airbag/horn mechanism. Don't know if the do that for other styles for other years.
