Default 69 Tilt column conversion
Would like to add a tilt telescoping column to my newly purchased 69.

What years are correct and will fit without modification???

Anything to be aware of??? I'm assuming it's a straight swap??

Thanks

Tim

Any column from '69-'75 will be direct fit.

i did this in my '69. it was a very simple swap. the only thing that takes any time is switching the lock cylinder so you can use the same key.
