Good question. Is the Caddy column a tilt/telescope? What I'm going to guess is that you may need to do a little finessing of the fitment at the rag joint. The overall length of the column is going to be an issue. Placement in the truck in such a position that the wheel isn't too close to your body, while still allowing you to attach it to the rag joint and the instrument panel is the issue.

Have you done any measurements to see how similar or unalike they are? I'd start right there before pulling anything out of your truck.
