I’ve tried to help out other members as much as I can over the years with photos, tips and documentation of my 1950, 3600 restoration. I’m kind of a purest myself, and that’s why I don’t come to visit over here much. But, that doesn’t mean that I don’t have buddies who chose to drive a custom Stovebolt rather than a factory original. Fact is most of my friends have modernized their rides to make a better daily driver out of them.
I know a lot of you have upgraded the front suspension of your AD’s to IFS meaning that you also had to change out the steering column for a late model or custom tilt column. I’ve been looking for a couple of months now over at the swap meet and on several other Chevy sites for a mast jacket or if I have to buy it, a complete steering gear. I’d sure appreciate it if one of you guy that still has one taking up room in the corner of the garage would get in touch with me. They usually end up going to the scrap yard with the other parts that get replaced. That’s been my problem with my local hot rod friends, i.e. they’ve already made the trip to the crusher.
Thanks

I want one for a four speed, meaning that it has No holes for the column shifter brackets. Don't want one that is all rusted out either. http://www.pbase.com/dennygraham/image/122760708 I'd take the whole steering gear but all I really need is the mast jacket. Thanks Denny Graham Sandwich, IL

I have a 4 speed mast but no steering shaft or bearings.The mast is in desent shape but will need paint.Just say the word and I'll find a way to get it to ya.
BTW do you or have you ever converted from lever action shocks to tube shocks anytime ? I am in the process now on my '48 and need to figure out what type of upper frame bracket to make to support the shock. If you have any advice or picts that would be great!

I have the column as removed from my 49 with gearbox and pitman arm. You can have it if you want it.
