Thumbs up tilt column

Not sure where to post this so I'll start here. I need to know if a tilt column out of a '76 or '77 K5 will fit in my '83 4x4 doolly? I know there is tilt column specialist out there that can help me out. Thanks.

Should fit just fine. Might be wiring differences based upon the wiper locations, headlight controls, etc. but, not hard to figure out.

Re: tilt column

Yeah,it will physically fit.You won`t have the wiper/light controls on the column since they were in the dash in 76/77.You could sawp the dash and move wires to 76/77switches.It would sure be easier to just find a later column.There`s plenty around and not too expensive.Unless it`s a floor shift.
