Re: Ebay Steering Column
They've told you everything they could. It's up to the buyer to make the right decision.

Re: Ebay Steering Column
i'd prefer a direct boltin replacement that uses factory stock fittings and electric hookups rather than having to hunt and search for the required fittings and adapting the electrical system

Re: Ebay Steering Column
If you don't mind hunting for the correct Ujoint to adapt the column over to your lower shaft and finding wiring adaptor its a decent column. It also will not have the neutral/backup switch and have to buy a 9 hole steering wheel or other non stock wheel. Its by no means an Ididit or Flaming River but doesn't carry that price tag either.

Re: Ebay Steering Column
I have an 81 intermediate shaft that receives a shaft like a flatted circle instead of the multi-splined like the older ones. I can trade you for a splined one if that's what this one is.
