Steering colomn question
I just changed the column when doing a 4 spd conversion & converting from power steering box to manual box & installing new pitman arm..... I found my wheel off by 30 deg.
Took it in for a re-alignment & there was plenty of adjustment available to get the steering wheel right.
Consequently I think you'll be going in for a re-alignment too & will get similiar results.....my guess is not to worry..........
ps: perhaps your column is from a different year?
