I DO have the tilt steering wheel. Is there any of the mods we’ve discussed NOT work because of the upper U-Joint? Or a “best direct fit” option for the K5 with Tilt?

This thread is specific to the S-series trucks and does not directly apply to the K5. Although the flaming river u-joint might work just as well on the K5. I'm not sure though as I have not looked into it.
