It looks like Borgeson has a coupler that allows one to use the existing steering column without having to cut it. Do you have any knowledge of that? I think it would be a good option if I ever decided to go back to original.
I appreciate the quick reply by the way, I'm pretty new to this world.
My comments were regarding a factory or factory-type setup. Borgeson is a completely different animal. Use what they or Bergman (aka BAC, a Borgeson vendor and advertiser on this site- see upper right corner of this page) recommend.
