Thanks

So I have tilt, locking column and it was easy to wire up the turn signals. Besure to cut the wire loom plug off the doner. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 381 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 381 | You can make just about any GM column from '69 up to pre air bag columns work. The '70's-'80's van column work well because they are short, as are the '80s- '90's GM front wheel drive column. Then get your steering shafts and steering ujoints from Borgensen or Flaming River. They will tell you how to measure for what you need after you get the column mounted. The S-10 columns are good too and there's a million of them out there in the boneyards. And as Yakimabowtie said, get as much of the column wire harness as you can. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2009 Posts: 33 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Nov 2009 Posts: 33 | You might want to check out ebay. I got a tilt colum from cpp for about 150.00 on ebay. | | |
