Ditto!!! I bought mine from Randy as well. Cost me $114 to my door. No core charge or anything. If you have questions on the removal or install let me know

Is it possible to shorten a tilt/ cruise steering column for a 79 GMC? I'm not fat but it feels like the stock unit is about 3 or 4 inches too long. I'm 5'10" tall, 165lbs. I have the seat all the way back & I don't have room for my wiener dog to ride on my lap (wiener dog is a little fat).

LOL

I doubt you can cut it. If anyone would be able to tell you what column might fit that would be shorter it would be Randy.
