RE: Flaming River Steering Column

[Sean B <polecat2@xxxxxxxx>]

That sure is interesting, Dan.  I can't remember the full conversation I 
had with the Flaming River technician, but I remember four things that 
were up to me:  I had to find a way to bolt it to the dash, I had to 
find a way to adapt it to the firewall, I had to find a way to adapt the 
wiring harness, and I had to find a way to adapt the column to the 
steering box.  Admittedly, on the last they had a universal-like adapter 
that made me nervous, as it had no provision to allow for in and out 
movement of the column shaft.

Does what you are saying mean there were no such differences between the 
GM tilt columns and those GM made for Mopar?  I hope that's the case, 
because I know where I can get one out of a Trans Am right now.  The guy 
owes me a favor, too.
