modified steering column, use w/crossover 4x4 setup
so i spliced a saginaw steering box and mount in my F-3 frame awhile ago and have been avoiding working on the column/shafts, i knew it was gonna be pretty frankenstein.
i actually got shafts/joints from 3 different vehicles not including the factory steering wheel and first 8" of column.
fyi, I'm using the hanging brake/clutch pedals from a 78 F150.

The more I think about it, the more I want to put my original column in like you have. I probably will but I got other fish to fry right now.
I don't like the plastic stuff around my column.
Did you fab up that underdash bracketry? from scratch? or is that from some other vehicle? looks beefy!

some before paint pictures; i either weld then sleeve and reweld or make a stub and slider type setup, weld and then drill a hole and "plug weld" can kind of see in pics....... I know some folks don't like welding on steering stuff.
