Looks good! Is that an original Tuff wheel?

Not sure if its original or not. I've had it for years. It was in a 75 Duster I bought back in 87-88 sometime. Never really looked to see if there was a Chrysler part # on it. I figured it was cos I don't think anyone was making them back then. It may have been out of an Aspen/Volare. The guy that had the Duster before me and put it together had kind of a Mopar junk yard at the time. It was a /6 car that he made a 360 3spd stick with 8 3/4 rear. I sold the car to my bro in law in 96, got it back in 97 or so with the pass side caved in and parted it out.

Your right, no repro parts in those years for Tuff Wheel. Those 4x4 Tuff Wheel column adapters are hard to find. I saw on on Ebay last week go for about $50. I quess it's something to do with the 4x4 steering column being different from the 2x4 cars.

Yeah one went for $152 about 2 weeks ago. It was the adapter and wheel said from a 77 Warlock. I got my adapter from a guy on Moparts. He bought it for a car wouldn't fit, so I knew it was the one I needed.

I was just looking on the grant website and it calls for the 4316 adapter for the 4x4 trucks, but you say it doesn't fit your truck? It didn't look like it was exactly like the factory adapter either.

No the 4316 did not fit. I know that is the one Grant's site says fits, but it fits 2wd column not 4x4. I e-mailed Grant to see if maybe I got wrong part and they say it is the one that fits. I wrote back that it doesn't, could the wrong part have possibly been sent, and have never heard back from them. So I figured the only option was to keep looking for original.

Thanks for the heads up. I was going to do exactly like you did.

kylekip68 I posted in the parts wanted on moparts and dodgeconnection. Didn't take all that long to get one found. Do the same and you should find one. Can try watching e-bay too.
