..in fact, I'll need to remove the steering column to fully utilize the entire length. It is long. Just re-looked at their somewhat difficult to see installation photos on-line. Looks like they cut the entire dash panel out and replaced with just the sheet metal repair panel. The repair panel does not have any sort of structural bend at the bottom edge so it may be flimsy. If I can't find an easy way to leave the bend from the factory dash panel, I'll probably spot well a light flange/angle iron across the bottom and weld on both ends to the cab.
