I'm going to be facing a similar situation because I have a nice mid-'40's Chevy wheel that I want to use on a '56 Ford truck column for my Dodge pickup. I think I am going to have to go junkyard hunting to try to find a shaft in something that matches the wheel, then cut off the existing Ford splines and weld a piece of new shaft to it.

You somehow need to get the two to mate, both in correct diameter and spine count. You can do it the way I just mentioned...........find some shaft that goes into your wheel and weld it to your later column, or, have a new hub made to match the column.

Start by looking at the spines in the steering wheel that came off of the suburban and see how it differs from the banjo hub. Then determine what needs done to make the banjo exactly the same as the suburban. Perhaps you can cut up the suburban wheel to render you just the portion where the spines are and have this welded onto the banjo hub, or modified to actually become the banjo hub.

You will want to make sure the wheel registers correctly onto the steering shaft, not only in diameter and spine count, but in taper also.
