GX steering column
Hey all,

I know that steering wheel swaps have been done before but I was wondering if anyone knew if the steering column from a GX (with power tilt/telescopic) was able to be swapped as well? While looking for a telescopic steering column, I came across this: Rockford Auto Parts: GX470 Steering Column. Looks pretty similar to the Runner's column but I'm not sure since I haven't taken mine apart in person. Can anyone verify? PS I already know that wiring the electronic controls will be another issue as well.

I just swapped my tilt column out for a tilt/telescope column this weekend. That GX column looks like it would work. I don't think the T4R is going to be wired for the power adjustment knob, but it should have all of the other wires for the audio controls, Bluetooth controls, and lights.

I know the GX power column adjustments are on a constant wire, so it shouldn't be too difficult to splice into one at the harness relay in the middle of the column.
