Description
Ididit Retrofit Tilt Column Shift – 69-72 Chevelle/El Camino/GTO
This retrofit column is designed to fit your Chevelle, El Camino or GTO and does NOT require modification to your original vehicle to install. Simply remove your old column, saving your original under dash mount as well as the original floor mount. Using an ididit installation kit, install your new steering column in place of the old. These columns come complete with a neutral safety switch, (shift indicator is not included) and feature an id.Classic keyed ignition. The shift pattern on the column allows you to use either a 3-speed or 4-speed automatic transmission. A shift linkage (new or original) is required for installation and will attach to the lower shift arm provided on the column. Using an adapter, add an aftermarket wheel and the gripping surface of the new wheel will be in the same location as the original.

Installation Kits
Deluxe Kit
This kit includes all the necessary parts you will need to install the column to the gearbox. All you need to know is the diameter of the gearbox input shaft and the number of splines.
Econo Kit
We had the builder on a budget in mind when we designed this kit. The original joint and intermediate shaft are used. The shaft will need to be cut and modified to match the 3/4-DD coupler. Due to age, the original rag joint may be worn so please double check to make sure it is in good condition. ididit, inc. always recommends replacing the rag joint.
Original Harness
For vehicles with an original factory harness, a 4-way flasher kit is included in your installation kit. This 4-way flasher kit will not only add safety to your vehicle, but will also convert your original wiring harness to the 3-7/8in plug found on your ididit column. (Only necessary for 1964-66.)
Aftermarket Harness
Many aftermarket wiring companies offer replacement harnesses that incorporate a 4-way flasher unit as well as the flat 3-7/8in plug. If you are using one of these harnesses, a 4-way flasher kit is not necessary.
