Answer
Hi Kenny:

None of what you have will swap into your Astro.  Although many of the GM column internal parts are the same, the tube and shafts of the vehicles you mentioned are all different.  Each of them have different mounting styles and are different lengths.  As you will see, there are a few questions to address before you can tell exactly what columns will swap.  You can search for it as easily as I can though.

For used parts...Try this site.  You may be able to find what you need.

It's the website all the salvage yards use when they say "Hang on--let me see if my other yard has it".  Actually it's an online database of all the salvage yards in America.  You can search by part, location or price
Enter the correct information for your vehicle and you should be able to see what will work and what it will cost you to buy


Good Luck
