Looking for a manual steering column for a 84. Must be tilt and have cruise control. No steering wheel needed. Hopefully close to Oregon so shipping won’t kill me.

im pretty sure a manual steering column will be the same, the gear being different... the wheel being larger..

If i wanted a manual GEAR box i would say so. Most people would know the difference between a manual steering column and manual gear box.

Is there such a thing as a manual tranny, tilt steering column? Not saying there isn't, I can't recall ever seeing one.

Thanks, There is alot of things I've never seen. Don't care much for tilt, but in these old trucks straight out is where I like the wheel, so, don't have a need.

You saiad manual steering column, that is what i read to be I have a truck with manual steering, I need a column, because its rare and maybe you didnt know it was the same. You should have said tilt column with cruise stalk for manual truck, because a MANUAL STEERING TRUCK WOULD HAVE CAME WITH A LARGER WHEEL, SOMETHING SOMEONE CAN FORSEEABLY THINK THAT IT WAS DIFFERENT.

There are we satisfied with understanding eachother

I figured a fixed column had to work because my grandpa was about 6'0 but he was rather round in the last days where he drove both the square and f150 which both have no tilt which is fine for me, less to wear out especially in the context of rugged-work-doer

i found myself getting distracted playing with my park avenue tilt column more than anything lol

Have seen one manual trans column with tilt/cruise. Was pulling out the pedal assembly and made the mistake of not taking the column too. Didn’t have enough cash on me at the time. Went back a few days later and it was gone. Day late or a dollar short seems to be the norm lately.

1984-87 is a direct interchange, 1988-91 fits by changing the wiper switch.
