Re: what year?

Not sure if you looked inside, but If it had the wipers on the dash its 81-82, if the wipers were on the column its 83+. Correct me if I'm wrong.

When i was looking for a 4 speed tilt for my 84 cab it had controls on the column, so 84 must be the first year of controls on the column.
