Got it sorted took the column out and went to a blokes house that dealt with rods racks back in the day a s we pin pointed that a hex head had come loose on the selector which made it just swing in the breeze when selecting tightened it up and adjusted it . Back in the car all driving again

Modification Help / Steering column replacement

Have a issue with selector on the steering column . Has dropped internally somewhere. Had it modified by rods racks years ago . Is there a swap out on the market someone has used that has the auto on the column to link with commodore transmission. And be able to run fc steering wheel . Any thoughts or ideas appreciated.

ANY ONE HAVE THE FULL PROCESS OF PUTTING THE DOORS ON CORRECTLY TO GET THEM RIGHT AND SEAL . HAVE DONE THIS SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE YEARS WITH MIXED SUCCESS. . IS IT BEST TO RE DO THE PINS IN ALL DOORS THEN START AGAIN. AS WELL AS SHIM'S

Tried fenix today only to find out they don't have any commodore radiators in stock and don't know when they will get any either . Also didn't have any fans or shrouds ??? Not good

I think I'm going to try the vl radiator . Seems like less cutting to fit it and won't look out of place in the car . And run the biggest fans I can . Will post photos once I start the upgrade .

Cheers

The natrad bloke at Brisbane suggest best a custom fit with vt fans .  Not sure how much I can cut out to fit this all in  without  it looking crap or out of place .
Any chance of some photos of your setup JB . I suggest the vt radiator cut down but wasn't so keen

had it modified to the collapsible column( but a shit job by rods racks ) had to fix that , then run a marine shifter cable and gearbox adaptor off summit racing . bit of a hassle but works great now really wanted to keep the original look to the car .
