i am trying to source the hanger that holds the steering column at the firewall. the one PO installed is very loose and the whole column has about an inch of play... also, what might be the best way of installing this? I'd rather not have to remove the column...

thanks in advance

Troy are you talking about the angled bracket that attaches w/3 bolts & is held by a clamp? Brian

im not sure whats supposed to be there. its a 63 truck not sure if column is original or not.there is a hole at the firewall that the column passes through. this hole is bigger than the column.there is a bracket. its one peice and has a bolt on either side bolting to the firewall. this bracket is smaller than the hole in the firewall but still not a snug fit. darn... this is hard to explain! haha

look at my horrible drawing for more details

The OE bracket kinda looks like a foot, has 3 bolts to firewall & a semi-circle "foot" that is clamped to the column. The bolts are above the fot part. Brian
