On the lookout for a tilt column for a manual transmission.
Preferably ‘84 up. Thanks!

I've been looking for one for my 74 too. Rare as hens teeth.
Yes they are. I wonder if I could replace the auto rotator part of the column with my manual one. I need to tear both apart and see whats interchangable. I dont really care about the depress lever to remove the key.

I know a guy that rebuilds columns in Washington state that was starting to do that. I'm not sure if he succeeded or not but he thought it was possible at the time I picked up a rebuilt column from him last year.
 
There's a guy that shortens them too, stumpys_columns on IG. Ideally I would have a shortened and tilt column since the K10's are so cramped.
 
I do believe the lower shift bowl is interchangeable, though I think it is like for like, non tilt and tilt ea have specific lower bowl

Probably so. Looking at diagrams on steering column services website, they are definitly different looking. I may just do like I did on my k5. Auto tilt and pull the lever.
 
for the floor shift it appears to be a basic tube. I bet one could be fabbed up.
 
It must have had a dash mounted shifter. I've never seen a GM motorhome with one, usually a Dodge feature. Eddie needs a newer one with an ignition on the column. I would be interested in buying that one for my 57 8.1 truck.
 
PM me an address and I will box it up get you a price. to ship. And offer me something for it in the PM. I have no clue what they are not worth.

What sucks is, I bought a new unit for ReTonkulous to have the tilt, before I came across this one.
