Floor Mount:
First slide the clamp up the
column. You may want to
tape it up on the column so
you don’t scratch it during
the installation. Next slide
the metal Floor Mount
with tabs facing upward.
Slide the gasket onto the
column. Once you have
your column in place
tighten the Floor Mount &
Gasket to the floor. You
can then tighten the clamp around the column and the Floor Mount tabs.
Note: When you install your new floor mount you will notice that the column
tube at the upper end is 2 1/4” while the lower part of the tube is 2” in diameter.
The column is made to collapse as was the original, only in a different way.
Connecting to your Box or Rack:
The ‘68 mustang will use a 3/4-36x3/4DD rag joint (mounted on box), a short
piece of 3/4DD shaft and a 3/4DDx3/4-36 Coupler (mounted on column).
The ‘69 Mustang will use a 3/4-36x3/4-36 Rag Joint only.
The ‘68 Kit Part #: 3006002100
The ‘69 Kit Part #: 3000053434
Note:
If you are using a Rack and Pinion set up
you will have to design your own way to
hook the column to the rack. We can
help with U-Joints and shafting, but be-
cause of headers and different compa-
nies making rack kits we will need more
information for you to get you the correct
installation kit.
Take the two of the above mentioned kits and install them onto the original
steering box per year & kit.
