Re: My 1961 crew cab- XRMYCRU

Finally got around to sorting out the steering.... I used a 62/63 column since I am going to use a 62 wiring harness, and I don't have a good 60/61 column and turn signal cup.

Since the crossmember is pancaked, and the steering box is moved up I needed a universal joint, a friend had one laying around, and since it was a double, and the rag joint is still there I needed to make a bracket for a support heim joint so the column wouldn't flop. I bolted it to the upper crossmember holes, and had to notch the motor mount to clear the bolt.

Now on to the dash and wiring harness...
