?? GM Column mount 53
Does anybody have a photo of the mount on a GM column with a column shift. Do I need to trim the collar back a bit? This is on my 53 3 window

Re: ?? GM Column mount 53
Thanks Bigmike,
I guess I forgot to mention that it is a late model chevy van column. I was trying to make this simple without adding a lot of braces and use the four mounting bungs on the column.

Re: ?? GM Column mount 53
I figured you were speaking of a late model column but was not sure I don't know of anyone making one but they probably have.

Re: ?? GM Column mount 53
if you want to use a column that fits the stock column mount you could try one from a 68 chevy truck. that is what i am using in my 54 gmc but mine is a stick shift column since my truck is going to have a floor shift. the length is a really nice fit too. sorry don't have any pics for u though.

Re: ?? GM Column mount 53
On my old '47 panel, I used a van column. I modified a 2" muffler clamp to hold the column and that tied in with the S-10 brake pedal assembly.
I'll look for pics when get a chance... swamped at work!

Re: ?? GM Column mount 53
I used an exhaust clamp at the top and a floor mount ball and socket on the firewall.

Re: ?? GM Column mount 53
Here's a few shots of mine.
This is a shot without the lower collar and the holes are for the LED gear indicator lights.

Re: ?? GM Column mount 53
So is the hand shifter on the left side, that is one way to clear the brake pedle!!
