Who's got the best Remanufactured tilt steering columns?

Just tore out my old non tilt factory steering column in my 69 swb and wanting to switch over to a tilt column but want to keep it factory.

Who makes the best rebuilt/manufactured steering columns?

I want one that all the guts/spline have been swapped out and powdercoated. One that everything has been replaced and ready to put in.

Looking for quality... Not the cheapest price.

Thanks for your time.

You may want to talk to a fellow board member, KevsClassics. He does a great job on those plus he's done quite a few for other members on here. Tell him 68Mike referred you.

After my woman bought me this one of Kev's about three years ago, and after meeting Kev a few years before that, I wouldn't put any other tilt in ANYTHING I built.
