I put the CPP power steering conversion on my truck and did in fact adapt the stock steering column. The truck is still under construction so I can not tell you how it drives but at the very least, the wheel turn with it up on blocks. I'm just a bit leary of the short steering arm.
Some tips though, I saved some good cash by buying a rebuilt steering box as opposed to going with their.
As for the steering column; I used the stock outer, cut it at the inner firewall and welded a plate at the bottom that bolted to the firewall. I cut the inner shaft and slipped the end into about a 6" section of a D-shaft with a hollow ctr. That was obtained from a van column I thought of using. The column is connected to the box via a universal shaft obtained from a Jeep Cherokee. I basically set the length of the inner shaft so as to work with the Jeep universal cause the Jeep section was way cheaper than the Borgenson or equivalent stuff.
