Anyone know how long a stock EB steering column is? Looking for an aftermarket, but the ones I've seen range from 30"-33".
Thanks,

My aftermarket one is 33", but I used the adjustable lower steering shaft from Wild Horses. That shaft enables you to use about any column, put the wheel where you want it inside the cab, and make any adjustments later.

Depends on the column. What year truck is it? If you've got an earlier one, you'll need a new lower steering shaft as well. The WH one that Entourage mentioned is a good option, as it also makes the steering system collapsible which could save your bacon in a front end impact.

Re: Stock Steering Column Length?
It's a 74' with a C4. I definitely want to get the right one. I'm looking at one on ebay right now that doesn't include my model and year in the list of compatible vehicles. After talking to the guy selling it, he was sure they're pretty interchangeable. I want tilt/column shift, but I don't want to spend $800 either, i.e. Ididit. Thank you guys for all of your help.
