Steering Coulum ?

Post by jguajardotx »

I currently have a 3 on the tree shifter in my 67 and I'm looking into making it an automatic. If I purchase a automatic steering coulmun from a 1970 will I run into any problems along the way??? My truck does have power steering "bendix" Thanks.....

I beleive the column will be too short. I would grab the Saginaw setup in the 1970. If the 1970 is manual steering it should bolt right up.

If you have manual or Bendix style boxes you can use a NON PS column from 65-79.
