steering shaft from a non-tilt steering column fit into a tilt steering column without alot of modifications or is it a put it it and go type deal?reason i ask is when me and a buddy put the steering wheel i bought from rage n rat into my truck the other day well the truck wheel didnt want to come out to easily at first-the nut stripped and galled the threads.so we used a die to recut the threads but my friends tap and die set is a cheap one and frankly sucks so while it cut the new threads its not the prettiest job and i fear it may have damaged the shaft beyond the point of repair and i have another column that i can take the shaft from but its a non-tilt and i have tilt in my truck so i need to know for knowledge's sake more than anything if it will work and has anyone done this type of swap before.
