Re: Steering Column
Tilts didnt come in trucks/vans until 71 or 72, the vans had tilt columns without the key until about 80-81, but they are shorter than truck columns.
Truck tilts started having the key I think 73

Re: Steering Column
You might have to buy a intermediate section from your rag joint to the column, not sure, but thats about it...
