I bought THIS steering column to replace a welded lower column
(Can't have a welded steering column in NZ). Unfortunately, it's 30mm too short. I'm sure there were a choice of lengths when I bought
it, but now I can't seem to find any others.
Does anyone know where else I can get a slightly longer one? This one is 330mm. Something close to 400mm would be good, because then I could move the
wheel a little closer to the seat. As it is, I would need a shaft 360mm long.
Try this http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=11805
I think they are both the same length...
how about mount the steering wheel 30mm closer to the dash and using a boss adapter / spacer thingy to move wheel back towards you ? (does that make
sense?)
the page you link to, THIS
also has different lengths of uj/couplings for the lower joint. (short and long)

Carbuilder solutions do one that is 400mm with both ends 9/16" splined.
Have a look here.
