That firewall plate isn't truck. Looks like a van or motorhome.

Talking

The Van tilt shaft is 2 1/2" longer than the truck tilt shaft.

Dinnut, I gave you your answer above. That rusty looking sheetmetal plate on the bottom of the column is not a truck one. Truck ones have two little screw holes in them and that's it. That one has like 5 screws in it. Looks like an van/ motorhome tilt.

and if someone who posted awhile ago about the lettering difference is correct...then the one you have corresponds with what they said was a VAN tilt.
