steering wheel distance
From the dash just above the stainless ring on gauge cluster mine is 10 1/4 to the same line/edge on the wheel as you show. A touch less from the the stainless ring on the cluster. Not near the 11" you show. Two things, my truck was completely redone in 2002, body off the whole trick. Last year I had the steering column out and steering box etc rebuilt . All bolted back in place in original places so I assume its Stock. Its my 3rd original truck and I fit the same(LOL).1955 F100. Depending on your year I wonder could there have been different length columns in the model years. Geometry,suspension location etc different? Hope this helps,what is your project? Mike
