New Column Installation
Inside the cabin install the floor mount. Align
the gasket with the holes in the mount loosely
with the three provided bolts. (Figure 9)
To install the column it is handy to have your
helper on the engine side to align the column
shaft into the rag joint.
Now you can install the column through the
firewall and into the joint. Once the column
is indexed in the joint, install the bolts for the
dash mount loosely. Check to see that the
dimple on the intermediate shaft is aligned
with the setscrew hole, move the column in
or out as necessary to align them together.
Install the setscrew jam nut with thread
locker. (Figure 9 & 10)
Tighten the under dash mount and torque the
bolts to 22 ft. lbs. Next secure the larger part
of the floor mount to the firewall; this should
also be torqued to 22 ft. lbs. Note: The Lock
Ring and Floor Mount Plate have an “X” on
the metal. The provided “X” mark is to be on
the Passenger side of the Steering Column.
Finally tighten the lock ring on the mount,
tighten it to 22 ft. lbs.
