Hello,

For a 73 charger how hard is it to find a tilt wheel set up and do any other dodges around that year use the same one as I may be able to find that easier.

I like the idea of a tilt wheel, but IMHO the pivot point on most tilt wheels is bad.  They should be pivoting from a point much farther forwards in the car (back into the dashboard area) so the steering wheel's face angle doesn't get so wacky in half the adjustment spots. 


If you're really wanting a tilt wheel because you hate the stocker's angle & location so much, then it might be easier to just to fabricate a new (rigid) column mount that moves it somewhat.  If you're good enough to retrofit a different car's column then you can probably do this too. 


Another idea - If you're considering moving the steering wheel in a major way, particularly in telescoping, then you should probably consider not making the column move so drastic and shifting the foot pedals to do some of that job instead.    The stock location has the pedals pretty damn far apart from the steering wheel.
