steering column
« on: September 07, 2012, 11:52:27 AM »
Hi Everyone!
It's been a busy summer but now its time to be thinking about projects on the truck. My 80 C-10 needs some steering column attention. A buddy has one out of a 95 that I can get for free. Will it bolt up? I know the wipers will be different. Can I use the wiring out of the old one and keep things the same? Its hard to pass up free parts!!   ;D

It has been a while since I looked at a 95.  Is the Column round.  I am sure with some fabrication and wiring anything can be made to fit, but...
