Column shift converting to B&M floor shifter

roadrunnerh,
I did the full conversion and installed the new collar piece I bought from Classic industries about a year ago. (It was a pricey piece, but the final result looks like a factory install). I did remove the internal locking wheel/mechanism just to simplify things and to prevent it from maybe rattling around some.
I took various pictures of each stage of component/section removals on the column as I installed my new collar if you are interested. I had some trouble getting the first splined collar to slide off the shaft and had to make-up a simple puller to remove it. There are a few C-clips and locking nuts as you disassemble everything (some of which i didn't initially recognize w/o some trial and error). Will provide pics and more details for the asking via this email: [email protected].
