what cruise control unit will work??
Hi Everyone,
I'm Rebuildind A 1970 C-10 Fleetside And Was Wondering If There Are Any Suitable Substitutions For The Factory Original Cruise Control. The Original Units Are Quite Hard To Find And A Bit Pricey. I'm Sure Somebody Out There Has Found A Good Substition Maybe Aftermaket? Maybe Gm Passenger Car? If Anyone Has Any Ideas----i'm All Ears Thanks ,mongo1957 |

I would check with Rostra Precision Controls. They used to make ( maybe still do!); cruise controls for our trucks, including the modified turn signal lever that matches the factory control of that type.

Re: what cruise control unit will work??
does anyone have any experience with the Dakota Digital Cruise Control addon unit?
I was looking at it, but would like to hear from someone if it's worth the cost. |

I'm going to be using the cruise off of the 81 van that I got the tilt column off of. Runs on vacuum and an extra speedo cable.

I looked into the dakota cruise a little bit , seems a bit pricey, i might just go to the junkyard and make something work.
