Re: Is a c10 steering column same as a c30?

You are bolting the 85 column in an 81 cab to a 87 steering box.

That should work.

The intermediate shaft will be the only thing in question.

Here is an Interchange list I found for a 84-87 mt steering column.

[1984-87 column shift; manual transmission}

CHEVROLET 10 PICKUP 84-87 Column Shift; MT

CHEVROLET 20 PICKUP 84-87 Column Shift; MT

CHEVROLET 30 PICKUP 84-87 Column Shift; MT

GMC 1500 PICKUP 84-87 Column Shift; MT

GMC 2500 PICKUP 84-87 Column Shift; MT

GMC 3500 PICKUP 84-87 Column Shift; MT

SUBURBAN 10 84-87 Column Shift; MT

SUBURBAN 1500 84-87 Column Shift; MT

SUBURBAN 20 84-87 Column Shift; MT

SUBURBAN 2500 84-87 Column Shift; MT

The swap I done years ago,
Was a 2wd cab on a 4wd frame (Cut Hole in floor for transfer case shifter)

I had a 77 steering wheel and cab connected to a 78 4wd steering box.

IIRC The only thing I had to do was use the intermediate shaft from the 4wd.
and it fit the 2wd steering column.


Here's the automatic column just for reference.
