Steering column swap '86 on '71?

Before trying this, thought I'd see if anyone has done this before, or if there are major issues to consider.

Wanting to replace the original column on my '71 Cheyenne with a "tilt" column from an '86 Silverado.

I don't plan to move the original "ignition key" or "wiper control" from the '71. Will keep them "as-is" for now.

The new column WILL have to handle the signals, hazard lights, and horn.

I've got color schematics for the '71, so I pretty well understand "what wire goes where" on the '71. Any hints on the wire/color coding on the '86 column?

Finally, what "mechanical challenges" are there, or "is this even possible"??

Any help is appreciated . . . Orion 762
