1985 tilt column in 1976 cab? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Has anyone tried this?
I have a 1985 tilt column in a rusted out donor cab.
Will the 1985 column bolt into a 1976 cab?
Will I need to move or swap the firewall plate or U bracket?

I'm not asking about the wiring differences. They can be sorted... I have GM Helm Inc. schematics for 1973-1986 gm trucks.
The donor has cruise and pulse wipers. I have the whole cab so I may just grab the entire cab harness and re-pin the engine compartment firewall connectors where needed.
