could be truck, or early van. The 72 - 75-ish vans had the horse shoe shaped turn signal plug, long shifter, and that font on the perndle.
Like Keven said, we need to see the other end to be sure what it is.
Judging by the steeringwheel, I'll guess 74/75 van.

For a van I believe it will fit up to 78.

From the digging around that I have done, I am 99% sure that in 76 they went to the smaller wheel and shifter.

I am 100% sure that is a true truck tilt. Notice the location of nuetral safety switch, the firewall seal retaining plate,the dash seal,the short shaft sticking out the lower end also that intermediate shaft is from a 69-72 truck. Most definately not a van tilt.

Looks like a truck that someone put a later model wheel on. Not uncommon to see.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
