Good feed back 99 to life. I have 3 steering columns to choose from. I have a 79 c10 keyed no tilt, and a 84 camaro non keyed with tilt, 92 GMC Safari van keyed with tilt. All the same length. I also have the shifter out of the camaro. I like tilt cuz a fat man can tilt it up when getting in and out. I was thinking about centering the reccess between the gages and not dropping the colum like some do. I also like what some of you guys did with running the original column after shortening it. I would probably have to go with a smaller steering wheel though. Plus my original was stolen several years ago.
I'll probably get the seating and steering sorted out first thing when I get out of my cast. 6 more weeks to go,
then try to get back on the 51.
Thanks for the feedback Root and 99 to life,
