Re: Steering column height

You point out something that I’ve always found interesting. I think a lot of folks who take these trucks apart to rebuild them and put them back together end up thinking that the “notch” in the dash between the two gauges is for the steering column to nest up into - but as you’ve accurately pointed out here, it’s actually for the column shifter linkage! Which is why you see the notch is not actually centered between the two gauges...
