yes they are diff.

I hope you can see diffs here:

yellow one is 74. Inside big metallic stuff ( is not more than a shield ) a thin rubber joint

next one is 73 notice the rubber joint is the thick one mith metallick inserts and the metallic coupler is just RIGHT BEFORE the rubber coupler

( of course there is also an extra difference because this last one is column shifter, but forgett about that )

Check with Firm Feel if you need one. I know they sell them for second gen Chargers so they might have them for yours too. If you don't see it on their site just send them an email. www.firmfeel.com

74s doesn't use that one, uses this one inside the visible shield



LOTS of cars use that one. I fit on mine the one from a Toyota ( same size on everything ). Interesting on the one on pic is the metallic bushings, but our units don't have them.

Urethane are available

note I'm saying THIN rubber coupler, not the THICK one. Thick ones are on 73s

74s even have diff firewall plate AND hole to column
