I see a 94 column for sale on Craigs list. It looks like it has the key lock but havn't contacted him yet. Before I do I just want to make sure a 94 will work or is that too new? here is the link.

That is still not a bolt in column. Guys generally only use the tilt S10 column for the upper lock items to make an A/Gbody manual trans column. The non tilt manual A body columns trans columns are pretty easy to find.

I understand it is not a bolt on. I am looking to convert the G body steering column in a sense. I would like to have the tilt option.

Well as I stated, only use the S10 tilt column for parts to make an A/G body column. I can point you to someone in central Jersey that has 3 or 4 non tilt manual A body columns.

But would I still be able to use the tilt? I was under the impression that i would not be able to unless the donor had the tilt option as well. Please correct me if I am wrong. If I can use parts off the A body column and retain the tilt function that would shorten my search greatly.
