Re: steering column
79-83 should be a direct swap, has double D shaft to connect to intermidiate shaft.
84-87rc/91cc,burb,blazer have wiper switch on blinker stalk, has double D shaft to connect to intermidiate shaft. 73-78 have splined shaft to connect to intermidiate shaft.

Re: steering column
just call a column repair guy to fix yours. itll be easier, cheaper in the long run, and you already have it.
you get a new used cloumn its probably broken or going to break. why chance that? |

Re: steering column
so does that mean you cant use a 90's steering column in a 77 truck, bcause everything is connected but im having trouble putting it in gear.
