Aftermarket tilt column issues. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

A friend of mine purchased an aftermarket tilt column from Fleabay.
He went to install it the other day and the flat bar the shift linkage attaches to, on the engine side, is pointing straight up. It should be at maybe 2:00. Of course if he rotates the whole column, (clockwise sitting in the truck), the shifter ends up between you legs. Not great if you have to stop quickly! I know they are junk but it may be past the return window and he is married to it. Anyone know if this can be adjusted and if so how?
Thanks to the board I purchased a OEM tilt. Although it gave me a headache rebuilding it, when I was done it at least fit.
Thanks
