Steering column question

Hello

Is there such a column for a manual transmission which has cruise + tilt + adjustable wipers ?

My truck was an auto and swapped it out for a manual, so now i have 2 shifters

any ideas ?

Re: Steering column question

I did this to mine. Any truck that came factory with a manual will have the right column. Just need to find your year truck that was factory manual. But you can see where it gets hard because statistically there are a lot less of that variant made as well as they were used a little more for utility and heavy duty and when they reached the end of thier life they were scrapped or parted. So you see that that makes that just that much harder to do.
