steering column swap

Here is a picture of the two different plugs. is there an adapter? the wires are not the same color. is there a easy way to change.

the two piece plugs was to my original non tilt 3 speed column. the one piece plug is to the tilt automatic motorhome column from a 67.

I don't know of any adapters, but if it were mine I would splice each wire together, solder, shrink tube wrap each wire, and then tape. It looks like the wire colors are all there to keep it straight.

Good luck!

Does any one have the wiring diagram for the column so that I can splice the wires correctly as they are different colors.

I believe you can get the adapters at your GM dealer. Someone here probably has the part number as well.

The only adapter that I have seen was for the plug in the left hand side of the pic. It has the U shape on one end and a flat plug on the other, it is for a later model tilt that have all flat connectors. It allows you to use the original under dash U shape plug with the flat style. I don't guess I have ever seen the two piece plug that you have.

The fact that your tilt came from a motorhome is what is making everything goofy. If you were to get a van one, then you could get an adapter at the dealer no problem.
What year/make was the motor home?

check with ididit columns, I just threw an adaptor in the trash last week. I swapped in one of their columns, shafts, and eliminated the rag joint with u-joints.
