WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

Im not sure if they will all cross over, but I have a 66. I swapped to a floor shift column and my steering shaft is worn at the bottom where it goes in the column tube. Anyway...I need a new one....let me know what you have.

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

I have one out of a 63. PM me if it will work for you.

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

It should...get me the length and lets make sure its not worn down. I will post a picture of what has happened to mine.

Thanks

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

I have one from an auto column in good shape, if interested just LMK, can provide pics.

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

Mine measures 54"...does anyone know if there is a difference in lenght over the years or for an automatic verses and 3 speed?

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

Just checked mine and its 54" in length also, some slight wear at bearing location but not much at all.

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

63-66 should all be the same

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

Tommy454 is coming up with 55.5 inches from his 63 and mine and SCOTTH is 54"

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

The difference could be the standard vs. automatic; although I am not sure why.

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

SCOTTH is an automatic and mine is a manual. both 54"

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

Anyone ever heard of cutting and "bondoing" a column shift to convert to a floor shift? If so how well does it work, what should I look out for? I want a tilt steering column for my 61' but it seems all the junk yards here in my town have 3 on the tree columns, yeah "wa wa". Thanks

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

You should be able to find a tilt column from a van up to 1978 I believe for a direct bolt in.

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

TOMMY454...your arrived yesterday...THANKS. Im going to wait till I get SCOTTH's and see what we have here and post my findings.

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

Im still hunting a correct length shaft....from what we have seen so far it looks like I need a 64-66 shaft. I do have one promissed but have not seen it yet so if anyone else has one please let me know...I need to get this truck back together and out of its stall!

Thanks

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

The one promissed above has been shipped...I will check it out when it gets here on Wed. and let you know.

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

Do you have a steering wheel too? Have 65 Chevy.

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

Have you thought about taking your old one to machine shop- having them weld and then turn down the wear spot?

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

Yes...I gave it some thought....that was my last resort.

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

I have mine out of a 66 if you still need one...send a pm to me if you need it...I'm 25 miles from Rome, GA could meet up and save on shipping

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

Steering shaft project completed.....Thanks guys!

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft

What kinda shape is it in? Any pics? What style center horn?

Roy

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

doesn't look like I kept it, sorry

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

Racedaddy, sweet looking truck! OK, found another wheel, on it's way. Thanks. You got any other parts? I see you are close by in 'Bama land.

Roy

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

reacedaddy, let me know if you still have a 3 speed column. some pics and an estimate to ship to 85212 would be nice too. i have a 66 gmc on working on but i think its the same as the chevy.

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

can't find my column so I guess I scrapped it out along with some other stuff, sorry man. I have a friend with a 65 that was a 3 speed, I'll check with him

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

no other parts I can think of, are you looking to get rid of the suburban?

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

Wc63 I have one on a truck I'm parting out. If whatever deal your wining in falls through let me know. I don't want to step on any toes.

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

My truck is a 66 c10 and it came with a 60s impala steering wheel and shaft. I had plans to do a underneath gas tank, but I've decided to go back to the behing the seat tank. I ws wondering since this impala wheel seems to be to close to me, when using a bench seat would an original steering wheel and shaft would be shorter? also could I use a different style seat in stead of the bench seat Thanks Jeff

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

Why don't you just adjust the position of the Impala column? Mine is from a '64 Impala.

Re: WTB..60-66 steering column shaft
 

i have a tilt column that i would swap even for a 65 column and wheel. its collapsible at the pump so you can adjust how close you want it in the cab.
i prefer my interior to look more oem.heres a pic if anyone is interested...
