1973 Duster Fuse block mounting

Lowering the column may not be absolutely necessary but it sure makes inst' panel removal easier. Two studs at outer end and one of those should have 2 nuts on it, ( second nut to attach a little ground jumper wire ), then the 3rd fastener is a bolt into a caged nut about 10 inches down on right side. Be careful to not cross thread that on going back together. I used my air ratchet there once and did just that. Ruined my day, lesson learned.
One downside of lowering the column in a column shift example is loosing the neutral safety adjustment. Not sure how this happens but it does sometimes. Get it all back together and it wont start in park ( usually will start in neutral though ). Adjust point in linkage to correct this is under the car.
Either way you'll need to cover the column with shop towels so inst' panel doesn't scar it.
