late model horn cap retaining kit?
 

Can anyone tell me what year retaining kit I need?
The truck is a 71 but I'm thinking the steering wheel is older...not sure though.

Re: late model horn cap retaining kit?
 

The steering wheel is newer. Not real good on identifying but is from 73-87 and I'm 99.99% sure they all use the same retaining ring,so exact year doesn't matter. I can most easiy tell by the horn button on these

Thanks special-K...
I had one other person basically tell me the same thing.
However they weren't sure if the which kit would work.
But they're not all that expensive...I'll see what I can find.
Thanks again...

I'd be willing to bet it is a van wheel and column. Since it has the shorter shifter I'd say 77 to 81.

Just out of curiosity do those short van shift levers fit on the original truck steering colums for 67-72?

Re: late model horn cap retaining kit?
 

not sure personally. I want to say yes. Just not swappable from tilt to non tilt columns.
I prefer the shorterr shifter myself, even with a large stock wheel. I have a 67/68 wheel in my 70 longhorn on an '80 van column. Prefer it BIG time over the long shifter.

yes the shorter lever will fit from tilt to tilt. New repro short levers are now available too. Havn't got them in yet but I know they will be a popular seller. I know I like them with lots of othe folks too.

I was told the steering wheel was off of a Suburban...but not sure of the year.
Still...I do need a retaining kit.
