69 wildcat floorshift column

Hey cool cats and kittens, converting my auto column shift cat to floor shift, so I am in need of a floor shift steering column.....has to be for big car. Thanks Gordon

 

Was there any difference in that column from 69-70?

 

I doubt it Brian but will check the book today, do you have a 70?

 

I have a 70 tilt.

 

Brian, I am certain it will fit, I can’t find it in my Hollander book but 69/70 should interchange. If you want to part with it shoot me a pm, thanks for responding, Gord

 

I have it completely apart to restore. At the time,I think I needed a few pieces for one of my other tilts,but I replenished my inventory since. I’ll get back with you.

 

Ok thanks Brian, this is for a big car correct?

 

I will post some pictures of the lower area with linkage arm. Make sure it matches yours. This came from a 70. It should be the same.

 

K thanks

 

Here are some pictures of the lower column. I think this black boot came from this and if so,I would need one for this,as this one is brittle and falling apart. I also need to know which one of these black horseshoe brackets is correct for the big car. They are NOT A-body,so one of them came from this.

 

I will check my column and mounting bracket, might be able to this weekend, thanks

 

I understand it is probably not out of the car.

 

The column is out and in storage, will get it tomorrow and post some pictures with measurements

 

I would like to put the lower boot on before I assemble the column. I am trying to source one locally.

 

Here are pictures of mine 37" from rag joint mount to back of steering wheel.

 

Yours is definitely different at the bottom. The linkage lever does not have the offset like mine.
I will try and get some more pictures to compared,along with measurements.
I might have to create one. I’m always up for a challenge.

 

ok, i looked at and attached a pic from my floor shift cat, unfortunately I can’t make out what the lever looks like and the car is in Arizona. I will check my manual to see if it shows the part

 

What I need to see is barely out of that picture.
Pan up.

 

That was last winter, damn, I wasn’t concerned about steering more brake and fuel line routings. That car is in Phoenix and I am in Canada unfortunately, I even shot video and missed it, Will check my manual

 

I got another full-size tilt today,and the lower lever is a lot more like yours,but this boot is split too. I can supply you a complete tilt,but is there a source for the rubber boot? It needs to go on during column assembly.
