Pretty much just remove the wheel, measure how much the stem sticks out so you can replicate that measurement. Then cut off the column from the box but extra long. Then figure out how long you want it and trim the tube to length. Install bearing and slip the center shaft back in as previously measured. Now depending on which telescopic shaft you use adjust length and machine the end to suit.
Still need to make a bracket to clamp on bottom of column and bolt to the floor. | | |
