So the previous owner of my dart put in a steering colum froma 80's van. It's manual steering, and the colum seems to fit in there okay. has anyone else done this? is there any reason that I should replace it for the correct steering colum?
I'm have no need to go to the original parts on this car, its already cut up and stuff, so if the steering colum works, then it should be good enough. the only thing that a bit of a pain in the a$$ is that the ignition switch on my 67 dart is on the dash, but the steering colum also has a spot for a key. so what I have to do is put one key in the colum(to unlock it) and then use the other key to start it.
I guess in a way its just an extra "security" feature on my car. its like having a steering wheel club. lol
any comments on this subject are welcome. thanks!
