There was/is a big discussion on this at SBO recently. If I remember correctly, the spline is the same for all years 1960-73 and 1974 was perhaps a split year.
This is different from my problem. I want a Scirocco steering wheel for my 1971 Super. Apparently, these will interchange automatically with later year Supers but I am left out in the cold.
I have been sidetracked with getting everything together for a drivetrain upgrade (to be reported later) but one thing I want to investigate is being able to swap (1) a '72 column and (2) a post-'74 shaft with my '71.
bow, I think you should be fine.
