Searched the archives but found no reference to column replacement. I know many of you have probably gone to Flaming River or one of the other mfg's but what I am looking for is info concerning the use of a Ford tilt from another model. I have used brand X columns over the years in street rods but would really prefer to use a Ford product. Anyone have any experience. Will go into a 57 chero.
Thanks

As you know the big problem is the fact that 57 Ford has a full length inner shaft. You must cut it and spine the end for a rag joint or universals. Plus a smaller steering wheel with standard steering is no fun.

Fortunately I have P/S. Am picking up a steering wheel next to test doing a diameter reduction. Was hoping someone would have simpler answer than resplining. Maybe the answer is to just do the Wildhog R&P. I'll give it some more thought.
Thanks

Jack;
I have a 64 Ford box and a 67 Tbird tilt column for mine. If can get some of my health back will put in but will be next year at the earlyest.
