The splines are different between the passenger car adapters and the adapters used on trucks; they are not interchangeable.
I put a car one on my '78 D150 pickup when I put a '72 E-body wheel in. Haven't tried going the other way.

Will the ribbed adapter/extension from a Challenger column adapt an aftermarket Tuff wheel to an A-body steering assembly?
That adapter is a lot longer than an a-body one so it will put the steering wheel a lot closer to you.

Depends if it is was a tilt column or not. Tilt column adapters for tuff wheels won't work on E-body columns.
Tilt column adapters are very rare and would only work on a tilt column. I've been looking for one for years.

The 70-71 & 72 parts manuals only show the 3467186 spacer (adapter) and the three 6029392 mounting nuts. Just curious how/where you found information on the tilt adapter.
Maybe mine is the tilt adapter; that would make it worth... what $2000 or $2500...

It wouldn't have come on a '71-72 tilt wheel. Probably a later truck or a car like the Magnum. All I have is this one single picture. Supposedly this is about 1 inch thick.
