Steering column brackets

I posted a few days ago about having a problem with the steering column, after having the column loose and tipped down to install my dash bezel. It seemed like the dash had moved forward and the brackets would no longer line up. I understand this is a given almost anytime the column is lowered. I'm going to post a couple of pictures of what I did, it worked good for me and hopefully may help someone else.
I simply got an old bumper jack, removed the base, put a block of wood on the floor, ratched it up to the lower part of dash pushed it out easily, slide a bolt in through both brackets, went to the other side of the column and did the same thing. It was a walk in the park and didn't have to worry about scratching the new paint. I hope the pictures show it well.
