shorty tilt
For those of you looking for a little more room while driving! This column has been shortened 2'' which will put the steering wheel closer to the dash. Everything else will hook up exactly as the stock truck column. It has been bead blaster and finished in semi gloss black and has all new levers, turn signal harness, upper and lower boots, new pointer, new hazard knob. This beautiful column will run $650 plus shipping.

That is frickin' jewelry. Too nice for my old rag.

Re: shorty tilt
Hi Les
Does this use the stock length intermediate shaft? Was the main steering shaft was cut down by 2" or does this come with a shortened intermediate shaft? Thanks! |

Re: shorty tilt
I just placed an order with 70shortfleet for a shorty tilt steering column. I plan to post pictures once I have the steering column in my hands. I currently have a sloppy CPP steering column; I can't wait to upgrade!

Re: shorty tilt

So why not use the flasher mech that has the Red Hazard?

Re: shorty tilt
So GMCPaul's is incorrect?
67-72 Turn Signal Switch With Tilt Column (132884-2 or 19717013) 1967-72 Turn signal switch for TILT steering columns. 100% correct just like original, with red hazard knob and correct curved steering column to wire harness connector.I went out of my way to get this one, instead of another black one that was causing a short (and correct connector too). BTW: this is for my own edification and not to say you are incorrect (I am not meaning to offend you)

Re: shorty tilt
Mine arrived today very impressed with the quality of work.
Do you do them for 85s?

Re: shorty tilt
I received my steering column, and so far, I'm liking what I'm seeing.
70shortfleet deserves recognition; he's done an exceptional job with packaging. As the saying says, a good first impression can work wonders. Even dough I haven't unwrapped the column, just by looking at how he prepped the package to ship, I can only assume that I will be delighted with the steering column. I will post more pictures once I unwrap it. |

Re: shorty tilt
I am interested in how this feels to drive. I am 6-1 and have not really noticed any problems with me fitting in the cab. Very nice work!
