Got mE sOme morE caDDi PaRtS!!!! yeEe haWw - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

So I found a good solid column out of a late 80 something broham cadi but it had no ket, but I went ahead and pulled it right,I get all the way down to tracing the wires to find a good place to cut it when I realize I forgot my wire cutters at home!!!

So I ask some dudes across the way , but no luck, as I walk back towards the cadi Im working on I see another late 70' early 80 something caddi and started to walk over to it... sure enough good solid column with the key in the ignition

so I snag my tools and pop that one out, of course it took me half as long as the first column now that I knew what I had to take off and what I didn't have to mess with. its a tilt obviously and a telescoping, it came out in two pieces so I'm hoping if the splines don't line up I can just use the lower rod part what ever the hell its called, off of a later model chevy truck. Am I right or no?

I will post some before and after pics as I start the process

touche honky, that looks fu*king bad ass I'm kinda upset its already been done, how hard was it to put in, was the craddle type bracket the same in your truck as it was in the cadi?.........and how did you wire it in? I bet it was a nightmare huh? let me know man, actually I really am kinda glad its been done now cuz I have some one to bug if i get stuck putting it in
