We will work through this installation using all these parts. For instruction
purposes we will assume the car is all original and has a factory manual
steering gear box and an OEM harness. On the last page there will be a

wheels.

1.
REMOVAL of OEM Column: Disconnect positive battery cable.
To remove the horn button on
your stock steering wheel, push
it in and then rotate counter
clockwise.
Remove the nut and use a wheel
puller to pull the original steering wheel off
the original column.
Now go under the dash and disconnect the
wire plug from the column to the underdash column harness.
Remove the three screws that holds the
gasket to the rewall.
Now you can remove the screws that hold
underdash mount.
You will want to rotate the column left and
right to loosen and then pull the column
back toward the driver to remove it from
the car. There will still be a 3/4” round
shaft sticking into the driver’s side compartment from the gearbox.
