<p>I added a picture and length specs for the lower shift rod (Steering Column Transmission Shift Shaft Lower Lever) on the non-tilt to tilt conversion Help Topic. I had the 2 side by side and have known the tilt is shorter for 2 decades but had never taken a measurement with the caliper. I took the measurements and the tilt lever is 4 3/16" long and the non-tilt is 4 3/8" long, or 3/16 inch longer.

<p>Hi Peter, I never received an email. I do have the retainer ring, washer spacer, 2nd retainer and other loose items below that top retainer ring I can pull from a parts column for say $20. Shoot me an email to <a href="mailto:jasonedge@nc.rr.com">jasonedge@nc.rr.com</a> and get provide total with payment info. Basically, I can ship everything we have talked about so far for $15 parcel select, or $25 for priority. </p>

<p>I do have a nice Turn Signal Actuator Yoke Assembly and detent spring for $25. I also have a nice Bowden cable that runs from actuator yoke to external turn signal switch if that is missing.</p>
<p>I don't believe I have the retainer ring,washer,collapsable spacer,rubber washer but will double check.</p>

<p>You can swap out to non tilt but all the many items in the link will need to be addressed.</p>
