My steering wheel is realy loose at the tilt, and I have read the tech article on tighting the bolts down in the guts of the column, but I am not sure if I want to tackle this. Would it be easier to just put a new colmn in? If so I can get one out of an '84 Camaro (I have an '86 T/A) will it fit and look OK? Let me know I want to do something about it this weekend.

86 T/A 305 4BBL NO AC,'83 center console (because I like the look), '83 L69 being rebuilt now, and new beige intreior going in soon

 

I would assume that there are absolutely no differences. The column we put in my Camaro after someone cracked it a couple of years ago came out of an undisclosed GM vehicle, but definately not an F-body (it had a chrome turn signal/wiper/cruise lever) and I don't even know what year.

My point is that GM columns are interchangable. I am currently planning on putting a late model GM column into my '67 442, and even that is a direct bolt-in (though it requires some rewiring).

Is the wiring the same on the "85 T/A's?

 

I'm sure it is. The difference in wiring on my '67 is that my ignition and wipers are on the dash, and with the late model column they will now be on the column.
