For helping keep this great

Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Aug 2007 Posts: 69 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2007 Posts: 69 | I bought new floor seal and flange for the steering column of 57 3100. New ones have a larger hole than the steering column diameter. I understand it needs to be slightly bigger to be able to slide the column through the seal, but there is probably 1/8" to 1/4" of space completely around the stock column that is not sealed. Am I missing something here??

The hole in the sponge seal is the same size as the hard rubber flange. Guess I'll buy another and see what I get. | | |
