i wuld never use a 73-up or car column with key switch in it in a 67-72, never, i could see if swapped a tilt telscope of other cool column into a 73-up since wiring is meant for the key switch in column style column, i just dont think its right, thats my IMO, if I was looking at a truck to buy and saw A later model column in it, i would probably turn away from it, thats how strongly i feel that most stock items in these trucks are fine how they are and are very cool, tuening a classic inot a later model truck by doing stupid things like that are retarded I think, ruins whole poiint of having the classic. now, i could see if it was an emergency and you had NO column at all and needed oen asap to move truck around, i almost did this to the 71 with the caddy telescope column but im no,w am selling column dirt cheap cuz I want stock correct column that will bolt in and not ruin my wiring and dash. plus they look better than newer columns, they are fine how they were designed, especially the tilts,

just my IMO

good luck with yours
