Can't help you with that, (a salvage yard can), but I wanted to mention to be sure to not rotate the steering wheels when the columns are out of the truck. There is a wound-up ribbon cable called the clock spring under the steering wheel that is only long enough to accommodate turning the tires full left to full right and just a little more. One extra turn will either snap that ribbon cable or it will fold over on itself repeatedly until it breaks. The circuits are for the air bag, horn, and cruise control. When the cable breaks, the air bag warning light will be on, and the horn and cruise won't work.
You won't know where the tires were pointing on the truck they took the donor column from, but standard practice is to put them straight ahead, then lock the column and remove it. New replacement clock springs come locked in the centered position and there's a piece of tape across the center hole warning to make sure the steering is centered. Installing the steering wheel releases the locks so the clock spring can turn with the wheel.
