'70 Steering Column options

Hey ya'll, new guy here. I did a search but nothing obvious came up. I am just wondering what the steering column options are for my '70 c10. I don't mind buying a new one for a few hundred dollars, but would rather find something a little less. Anyway, the real question is whether or not I could use a steering column out of a later model Chevy truck or if it has to be from a 67-72. What are my options and parameters for this? Thank you

Re: '70 Steering Column options

from Texas
Some guys have installed tilt columns from chevy vans in these trucks, I am not sure of the years that will work but I am sure someone will chime in here pretty quick.
Whats wrong with yours?

The turn signal lever is broken off and so is the gear indicator.

If that's all that's wrong it would be easier to repair these items than to remove the column and replace it with another

My van tilt is from a 77 g20 van I believe.
