steering column question

I have a cast iron powerglide in my truck and it's on it's last leg. I was thinking of installing a TH350 but I want to use my stock column. Does anyone make shift linkage or aftermarket column that works with a TH350?

Re: steering column question

An aftermarket column or a later model 3-speed auto column would be quick/easy swaps.

I thought 64 impala had a 2 speed column and TH350 needs a 3 speed?

If you actually live in West Hollywood. You can go to the Truck and Car shop and get an aftermarket linkage there. They sell CPP ones for about $40.

Re: steering column question

It shouldn't be a problem. Just tell them what you have. The shifter levers in the column didn't really change much through the years. They are listed on this page. different lengths. http://www.truckandcarshop.com/trucks60_72/t60_061.html
