Re: mylow53 build

Nice work.

I looks like it must have been fun. What are you using for linkage to connect to your trans? I saw a nice once one from Kugal Komponents. The one from Kogal uses rods where the one offered by Ididit is a cable.

I need to hook my sterring up yet, but mine will be a straight shot.

Looks good.

there in lies my problem. since i changed shops the original steering colom didn't come with any linkage. i bought a locar version (that uses rods) but that doesn't have the linkage arm that comes off of the end of the colom just before the ujoint. i'm planning on fabing one up. since im guessing on it's size i'm sure ill make a cupple of versions.... and no it wasn't fun i'm so worried about the idler berring comming loose while i'm doing 70 in la traffic..... at least it will be a closed casket funeral...
