Tilt Steering Column Question

I know I can get an aftermarket tilt column with a floor shift but was this an option from the factory, if not is there a factory column that will work for this situation? Thanks

Re: Tilt Steering Column Question

sorry about that, I am working on a 1971. I am putting a 5 speed in it and I want a clean looking swap.

Re: Tilt Steering Column Question

Factory tilts from a floor shift (manual) truck are hard to find and very expensive when you do find them.

Some people will modify a column shift tilt, to save a few bucks.

I would talk to member KevsClassics.
I think he should be able to hook you up with a factory looking tilt column.
I have two that he restored for me.
