Does anyone know what other tilt columns will fit in a first gen truck? I searched other posts and the 72 Chev van will "reportedly" fit. I need a rock solid list so I can know what to look for. I know that companies are out there, but I was after factory oem tilt columns that will fit 1st Gen Blazers.Thanks...Rick

There's your answer right there, either find a factory used one or go with an aftermarket replacement column.

Any truck tilt of those years will work too.
 
I'm using a van tilt column in my 69 K20 - they didn't switch to a key on the column until much later. I'm positive any van up through the late 70's is useable. You will need to shorten the intermediate shaft a bit - most just drill out the nylon pin and collapse the shaft but that does reduce it's ability to collapse in an accident. You also sometimes need an adapter to connect the wiring harness of the van column to the truck wiring.
