Van tilt that fits our trucks with no modifications!!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**PICKMUP** · 03-04-2004, 05:22 PM

SOLD---Nice van tilt with exc wiring. This one fits our trucks without all of the cutting & welding to make the N/BU switch work.

$150 + $25 to box & ship.

**PICKMUP** · 03-04-2004, 05:35 PM

Here is the trick part! Notice the N/BU switch is in the lower position, like our trucks...And the tab inside sticks up like our tilts. All other vans have a hole cut inside for a plastic insert to drop into.
This saves hours of measuring, cutting, & welding to make the other van tilts look & work like this.

$150 + $25 to box & ship.

What has to be modified to make the longer shaft fit a truck? Anything?

griesel72 · 03-04-2004, 06:30 PM

It looks like the intermediate shaft isn't on that one, it is easy to modify yours to work.

**PICKMUP** · 03-04-2004, 06:43 PM

You just slide your intermediate shaft (69-72 PU/not van) into itself until it is the right length.

You have PM

Hours to modify a different style tilt? Nah. Not once you've done one.

**PICKMUP** · 03-05-2004, 02:36 AM

The tilt is sold--Thanks Ed.

...and if you need any more of these, just get ahold of Rod. He says he can do them real fast.

What did that column come from........?

Davy · 03-05-2004, 04:30 PM

Hey, I know where one of those is in a junk yard. Looks exactly the same....with the N/BU switch in the lower position.

May have to go get it now.

stllookn · 03-05-2004, 07:33 PM

Yes, what truck did that come from? Is there a van tilt that does not need to be modified? I want one!
