When we cahnged out my 84 GMC truck and my son's 86 Chevy truck from 350C trannys to the OD trannys, we did NOT change out the columns. The detents are actually inside the tranny and all we had to do was to put in a new indicator on the instrument panel and adjust the shift rod sliding setnut to a point where the shifter indication was the same as the indicator. Life goes on and you do NOT have to buy a new column
