Tilt steering wheel question

[Steve McMahan]

I had posted this question in my build thread, but I think it got lost. My question is: can I use the rather plain turn signal lever in place of the unique looking tilt lever? I haven’t found one yet and wondered if that was because the stock lever would do the job.

Thanks

I find an original standard one works just fine. Can't speak for a repro if they are made.

Thanks Doug. I wonder if that plastic sleeve that is at the attaching end of the lever can be added to a standard one to create the function?

My parts catalog shows the same turn signal stalk regardless of tilt or fixed column, but it's a D3TZ number for the 73s.

72-earlier used the D0AZ-13305-A with the chrome knob.

I just wonder why none of the replacement levers say they work with the tilt column?

Just found this in the MPAC book:



Guess @Hemikiller was right. Thanks everyone. Someone should inform WCCC.
