Column is from a mid 80's suburban. Steering wheel is from a mid 90's GM. Everything works but the cruise and int wipers. one of my winter projects is to get the wipers working from the column.

Yes. We did do some significant cutting on the Dodge mounts to lower the height. Then welded on new tabs to run bolts through the floor. An of course we placed reinforcements under the cab. A few dry fits before we got it right. Well worth the time though.

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!

This is from my first truck. The gauges were faded so I polished the markings off of the clear plastic and had someone more artistic than myself replace them. They are all on the back-side so it had to be done inversely.





The trucks name was "Thirsty"




The gas gauge was my favorite part.
