Buddy at work gave me a good idea on how to get column further into dash without cutting it.

Going to make a spacer for thr factory mount to drop it down an inch or two. This should allow me to move it into the dash another 3-4" and will take care of the issue I have with my shoft linkage rubbing the firewall going into lower gears.

May need to cut slots in the bracket and jold onto column with a hose clamp since it wont be sandwiched up into the dash though.

Thought about buying a drop mount but have no way to mount brake switch then.

Would just need to trim steering shaft some more.
