    2001 Freightliner with an air bag?

    last i knew Volvo was the only Class 8 truck that is airbag equipped. And ‘01 might be a little early for that.

    Worked on a lot of 2001 Centry and Columbia's. Never seen one with a airbag.

    They had them. Had Mercedes Benz logo on them. Usually had Benz engines in them also.

    You can do whatever your heart desires. Throw a pair of vice grips in there and use that for a steering wheel if you want.
