New steering column question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Kinger615 · 12-17-2016, 03:32 PM

Hi all. I'm installing a new column in my 63 and was wondering what can I use or is there a part to seal the hole where the column goes through the firewall. Is there a gasket or a plate that anyone makes? Searched the web but found nothing.. just seems like a lot of space surrounding the column that allows air/moisture.
Any idea greatly appreciated
Thanks

Items #15 and #16 on the inside of the cab.
16 is a plate that covers the seal (15) against the firewall.

Or you could become a member and ask in the parts page.

Also don't forget the bracket on the firewall side.
