Title: High hump cover
Post by: Art Vandelay on November 28, 2022, 01:38:47 pm
Just got my first K10 (bare with me) and like a lot of what I’ve read I discovered a lot like it was originally a manual converted to a floor shift and I want to convert to a column. So my questions is will this high hump cover fit on a 76?

Hi and Welcome from SoCal San Diego  ;)

A little more would help, i.e. the year.

So a K10 came as a 4x4 with a *transfer case* shifter on the floor. What is the case with your truck?

You are saying that it was converted to a floor shift manual, and you want to restore it to a column shifter?

Can you post some pics please? Thx!

There is a thread on here describing each type.  The Summit link is for a 67-72 so it isn't going to work for you.

You guys are awesome, thanks for reply’s.
@JohnnyPopper I have a 76 k10 that was “originally” manual then converted to an automatic with Hearst shift. So I have a screw on hump that now has 3 holes (old shift, 4x4 shift, Hearst) I want the automatic back on column (whole other column question but don’t think this is right chat). Based on the link the 73 K20 pic is what I’m looking for or I just weld patch the two unnecessary holes. I tried posting a pic but kept telling me image was to big.

Thanks man, very helpful.

So if you are going to install a steering column from and automatic, you will have three holes to cover, correct?

Unless your auto is mated to the xfer case that is, but it sounds like it got ditched.

I would just patch them, they are out of sight/mind.

Look on this site or others for software called PIXresizer to shrink your pics.
