Hi Guys and Gals,
Just got my TCI Must 2 ifs, however was wondering are there any diagrams or photos of steering hook-ups. Should I stay stock and changes required or go w/ something different. I was not told how nor what items I have to purchase to get my wheels connected to that large round thing you hold onto when yer drivin'. I'm going w/manual steering. Thanx in advance for any tips photos or drawings. Going for a surf I'll check back later!

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

http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c13/rsg2506/IMG_0004.jpg

* 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...

-Rich
