A little while back there was some discussion re steering columns for FE/C.  I have installed an EJ/H auto column onto the original FC steering box (straight forward operation). The Neutral safety switch is supplied with the EJ/H column(no problems here) I am running 186 Tri, so I took the lockout from a Torana and welded it in place of the EJ/H lockout (little bit of trial and error, but not too difficult) Also took the PRNDL from a Torana, cut the letters out, and stuck them into a HR housing which bolted straight onto the EJ/H column,  the PRNDL light was also OK in the setup.  Only problem is that the FE/C wheel will not fit the EJ/H column or anything later. I dont think it will even fit an FB/EK column without an ugly gap appearing.  Use a sports wheel to get the short column you desire.

Thanks Ken, that's exactly what I am after. My first message probably didn't read as I intended, but I actually needed a EH or later column so that I CAN fit a sports steering wheel. Apparently boss kits are only available for EH's and later models.  How much shorter is the EH Column than the FE Column?
