Steering Columns Help
I am trying to understand the difference's of the two (Auto ver Std) in the parts that each have in common if any. Is there any where here or on the "Net" that might have a parts brake down with part Mfg numbers, I have found this diagram below that only has a description name of the individual part not with any Mfg'ing numbers, If I had Mfg Numbers with the description then I"d know if same part in auto and std will fit each other. By looking at each other I can see that thee shafts are definitely different and some others, can some one point me in the right direction. Thanks, mjgord51

An original GM parts manual would be the only thing I know. For some reason some of the reproduction books and manuals don't have the part numbers in them.... LockDoc

Re: Steering Columns Help
This link is very useful. The 68 and earlier columns in cars are very similar to the ones found in the 67-72 trucks. The columns in cars changed in 69, the ones in trucks did not.

Re: Steering Columns Help
What is your goal? Members may have found ways to solve the problem that you're facing without having to take apart the steering column.
I've got a '69 with a manual trans but I want an automatic. Steering columns from 70's GM vans work perfectly.

Sold what was left of it for $800 to a guy who came to pick it up at 11:00 PM with cash in hand. Hmm. '79 Sierra Grande (Black) organ donor - perfect rebuildable 4-bolt 350 and a good TH350. '76 Sierra Grande (Orange) - hate isn't too strong a word. Kid who bought it turned it into a hot rod. '68 C-10 R.I.P. - Dad's old truck...too far gone to resurrect. '59 C-50 - with hoist. Truck is gone, wife isn't. Nuff said. |
