Tilt Questions

Hey all,

I just received a rebuilt original truck tilt column that I ordered off ebay,
My question is do I need to do any special prep work to my truck to mount this column or do i need any other parts to make the swap? I know there is prep work involved for a van column, but I dont know what if anything I need to do to mount an original tilt.

Thanks

Nope... It Should Bolt Right In If It's Original. John

Re: Tilt Questions

If the turn signal switch was replaced durring the refurbishing, you may need an adapter for the plug. Look at the plug, if it is half moon shaped, then you are good to go... plug and play, if it is flat, then go to your dealer and order P/N189451, it should be about 10 bucks or so IIRC.
