Steering Column Replacement

[Tynan918]

Shopping for replacement keyed steering column, but I need to know the length of the stock steering column before I can buy a replacement...

The one I found is 30", but an EBay seller selling a used stock steering column says the length on it is 35"...

What should I be looking for ?

Tynan, check out this video on rebuilding the steering column. Hutch does great videos that anyone with minimal skills can take on. Lastly, I just measured the spare steering column and it is 35" from tip to tip.

The link didn't show with your comment... And thanks on the length 👍🏾

You don't need the rod, it looked fine in the pictures and videos you posted. You need this.

It's gone I believe, the rod to the ignition switch, I cant use the ignition key without it.

I think I either threw it away or placed it somewhere in my moms garage, or it may still be in the steering column.

Just made it off of work and headed home to check everything out.
