Steering column questions please help
 

I'm in the process of putting my 1989 gmc suburban back on the highway and i need a new steering column. I found one on line for a good price but want to make sure it works before i buy it. The seller said it came out of a 1989 C1500 Sierra. I've looked the truck up on line and its right when the bodt style changed.....does anyone know if it will work?????

I'm thinking they are different, but to what extent, I don't know. There is definitely a line from the R/V Suburbans/Blazers/1 ton trucks vs. the C/K Trucks.

Found one post that said they are different "No sir, not even close, for several reasons - mostly the wiring, but also they are physically quite different."

Correct. Very different. Some inside parts swap over
Good news the is 81-91 columns are basically the same.
Whats wrong with current one you have? I have rebuilt more than I care to remember. Pretty easy job with few special tools.
