    Wanting to upgrad my steering column in my 1966 c10 to one with tilt and power steering. Any idea on what year trucks to get one from, also looking for a bench seat to go in it, thanks

    [updated:LAST EDITED ON Jun-01-06 AT 11:52 AM (CST)]Before my last swap I used a 70's Van tilt column. It fit perfect and does not have the ignition mounted on the column. I switched to a Billet Specialties column last year.

    For a bench seat you have a ton of choices. Virtually ALL Chevy pickup seats from the 60's thru the 2000's will fit with only a few holes needed to be drilled. I initially had a late 70's 60/40 split bench but upgraded to a mid-90's split bench earlier this year.

    For power steering, there is only ONE way of doing that safely, with a REZ Engineering steering box adapter.
