Here is a picture of how I did mine with a modified stock column:

* I removed the steering box from the column and put a new bearing at the end of the column (http://www.classicparts.com/prodinfo.asp?number=76-987).

* I then lowered where the column comes through the firewall about 2 inches and used two steering joints to connect from the column to the MII steering rack.

* I made two 3/4 inch spacers to lower the column from the dash to get a comfortable steering angle for the wheel.

Hope that helps...
