Tilt column & normal column compatibility
Hi Guys,
I have some problems with the tilt column I have now in the Burb I bought last year , the upper bearing ( or should I say "bushing" ? ) was already toast when I bought it , the steering wheel flies in all directions. I still have a normal ( read : no tilt ) column I took from my C-10 , is that upper bushing/bearing the same & can it be easily removed & replaced ? If no , has anyone an idea where I should buy one ( apparently not by the "columnowhateverlogist"... ![]() Are the two different columns just "bolt-ons" ( I mean electrically , are the connectors the same ? ) in those trucks , knowing that the C-10 is from 1979 and had no "Cruise Control" and the Burb is from 1987 and has "Cruise" Thanks the Baron

the main difference in your columns is the dimmer switch in the 87 column. The 79 has it on the floor. They won't swap out.
