The 73 and up PU intermediate shaft and colum shaft are bigger diameter than the van tilt and 67-72 PU. I found this out the hard way - not costly but time wise.

the splines on van columns are the same as our trucks. i actually think when gm changed to a column with key in 73 they used up all the left over columns in the vans.
the only thing to look for is if the intermediate shaft is for standard or power steering. the splines on the boxes are different diameters. |
