Re: changing steering column
OK, that column in the picture looks just like the one in my 69 C10. The flex joint (or whatever it's called) that you have circled clamps down onto a splined shaft with a groove for the bolt. The rag joint connects the lower shaft to the steering box. Do you have a picture of the Blazer column?
You should send a message to our member Don D who rebuilds steering columns.

He can answer your questions and may be able to sell you an automatic upper column.
