Cruise control parts placement? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

powell72 · 05-23-2008, 05:18 AM

I've done some homework with the search but I can't find any good underhood shots of the factory cruise for a '72. I am work on installing it in mine and want it to look it's been there since day one. I mainly would like to see where the parts are mounted exactly on the inner fender. I appreciate any help or photos or links I may have missed. Anybody? Rod?

Where exactly was the cruisemaster switch usually at under the dash?

These are pics CPNE sent me before I bought this cruise unit off him. 1972 version if I remember correctly.

Thanks Rod, I've been back to that thread a few times. Those two pics are exactly what I was looking for though.

Is there a good source for buying new cruise control parts for our trucks?

Rod · 05-28-2008, 02:35 PM

NOS pic to compare parts.

another I listes as 71 as it seems a transition year between 71 and 72 which have little difference from what I can tell.

The more pics the better, as long as it isn't any trouble.
