NEW STEERING COLUMN

PART #3000313449

ORIGINAL STEERING

SHAFT MADE IN TO A

3/4” DD BY GRINDING

TWO FLATS

Column

Note: Cut approximately 6” up from

the box, a second cut will be necessary.

Install the column after you cut the

shaft so both shafts are touching. If

you need to cut the steering box shaft to

move the column in more, cut it again

and recheck. Install any dash pieces

before cutting. After cutting to the

perfect length grind the shaft to a DD

to fit the coupler. (See “Synchronizing

Your Column” on page 5.)
