I will be, on a glance it looks like both the tube and the shaft will need to be cut a good 5 or 6 inches, possibly more, after cutting(and doing all the lower bearing stuff I plan on buying a couple 3/4" steering u-joints of of Ebay or somewhere to weld onto the shaft on one end and bolt to the rack at the other...then all I would need is a straight piece of 3/4" steel...if it will angle the way I want...I might possibly have to add a 3rd U-joint and stabilizing rod end in there somewhere, so the lower bearings I will be using, u-joints, shaft, rod ends, etc will all cost me roughly $200 if I do it this way, and I was wondering why Heidts charged $250 for the kit...its probably better for me to buy the kit and let them take care of all that...but I enjoy fabrication(and besides I'm not going to pay that for a kit that I cant see a picture of what all it contains)
no..the upper part of the column m exploded view says it contains...steering column wheel spring,sleeve, column tube bearing(which i may actually have) but thats all it lists, even though it shows other parts
