Now go under the dash and disconnect the
wire plug from the column to the under dash
harness. (Figure 3)

Remove the 4 bolts that hold the lower floor
mount to the firewall toe board. Remove
the bolts or bolt that attach the floor mount
to the column. Since we are working on in-
structions for both a ‘68 (Figure 4) and or ‘69
Mustang, they have a lot in common. We will
be talking about both and each at the same
time.

Remove the two piece floor mount on the ‘68
by separating the two halves. On the ‘69 it is
a clamp with one bolt.

Before we get to far we need to remove the bolt that holds the rag joint on
the steering box. You may want to spray some penetrating oil on the bolt
before you take it out.
