Title: Steering Column to firewall rubber Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on January 31, 2006, 11:41:36 AM Before I start chopping things up I wanted to see if there is an easy way to install the steering column to firewall plate rubber.
The column is in and complete. I figure I either take the column mounting u-bolt off and strip the top of the column or (prefered) cut the firewall rubber, install and glue it up.
