Hey everyone,
First of all thanks for taking the time to read this.
I have a '58 Chevy truck that I am doing an engine swap with a 350 and TH400 Transmission. I would like to use the original steering column and column shifter. Has any one done this and can suggest the proper steps?
I wanted to use one of the Loakr type column shift linkages but when I removed the original linkage I noticed the shift rod does not extend past the firewall.
Is there another kit out there for this, an extension maybe? Also I have considered finding a straight rod the same diameter as my shifter to weld on as an extension... Thoughts? Thanks in advance. Rich
