My hand arthritis is getting so bad that my doctor has suggested using a padded cover on my car's steering wheel. Sounds good. Even better would be one for my 150 series lawn tractor's steering wheel. Nothing on Amazon or doing a general Google search. Local Deere dealer says never heard of one. Anyone out there have any ideas? Thanks.

Measure the diameter of the steering wheel then get a generic cover for that diameter wheel .
Go to a hard wear shop and get some foam pipe insulation , slit it lengthways then push it over the wheel & secure with plant ties.
Go to a sports store and get some tennis racquet or golf club grip tape & wrap the wheel with that
Find a dissability support store / assisted living store and see what they have that could be used.
If you have bad arthritis you will find a host of things there to make your life a lot less painful from cuttelry slip ons to can openers to key extenders.
It can be a life changing experience.
It took me 3 years to drag dad down to one but once he was there he would not leave, bought box loads of stuff that made a big difference to his life
The long off set back scrubber was his most favourite item and he had a left & right hand pair eventually. After that the yard tap handle covers meant he could turn the taps on & off again.

I'll keep looking for a generic cover but think your idea of golf club grip tape may actually be the way to go. As to your other suggestions, I will be trying them. There's no disability support store close to me but I bet Amazon will have something. Thanks for the help.
