61 uni steering

I am installing a 302 w/ C6 in my 61. Also want to do the No limit power rack and pinion. Question is to make this work, can I swap my 3 on tree column for a 67-72 automatic column without much modification or, what mods would I need to do.

Column for 72 is longer and exits in a higher spot. I do this to all my pre 65 trucks.



I add in the lower section from a 65 66 and place the column through the firewall in leiu of the floorboard.

It can be done but you need to restrain the column at the bottom and will need custom linkages.
