Can I swap my conventional steering column in a Peterbilt 379 to a tilt/telescope steering column?

Will modifications to the steering shaft have to be made?|||your shaft will be ok just order the right year tilt/telescope and you will have a easy swap electric wiring will take the longest part of it|||As long as the U-Joint end of the shaft (at the gearbox) is the same it should be a bolt on upgrade. The through hole in the cab would be in exactly the same place although a bolt hole or two may differ to some minor degree.|||all the cabs are the same for a particular model, tilt/tele is just an option added at the factory, you either payed for it you didn't, there not going to change the cab for a single option. actually it's an easy swap, the column itself will be the biggest expense.
