Tilt steering 1966 C-10

[Clyde65]

I have a 71/72 c10 tilt column, I think they are 32”.

CPP has some aftermarket copies that are pretty good I hear, go with Summit to buy tho

I read an article sometime back re problems with poorly made imported aftermarket steering columns.
Don't take any shortcuts with steering, suspension or brakes. If you can't find an OEM unit that suits your needs stick with Ididit or Flaming River.
Expensive? Yes, but the peace of mind is worth every penny....

Flaming River...........

I put my hands on those columns in their store, I'm concerned that they're cancel cam horn contacts are so long our horn buttons would no longer work. Looks like they're made for those adapters for 6 and 9 lug billet steering wheels. I could be wrong.

I was starting to put in power steering over the weekend. I had the same thought that Bentbolt had about moving the column closer to the dashboard. I was thinking 2-3 inches would be about right. I figured I was already going to have to cut the column shaft already, so why not try to slide the column in a bit. I didn’t really look at it enough to figure out if it was possible, and or I would have to cut down the actual column. I figured I probably would have to cut it and try to remove the 3 on the tree stuff. It’s all just a idea as of now. I’ll probably just end up with a after market column. I like how the original column looks and I have the stuff to rebuild the turn signal switch already
