Jon's 69 CST Build

While doing so I noticed a crack in the turn signal switch, so replaced that with a new switch from GMC Paul's. I also found the fiber optic cable for the shift indicator sitting unused inside the column, so put that back the way its supposed to be.

After getting the switch and steering wheel hub installed, I decided to test the horn because of all the stories I've seen on here about horn problems after messing with the column. I was getting frustrated because the horn wouldn't work at all. I finally decided to walk away from it for a bit. That's when I remembered those steering column harness wires dangling (disconnected) under the dash.

haha glad I could inspire you to post an update, and thank you for doing the same over in my thread!
So what are the specs on your current wheels? they look pretty wide?
