Borgeson steering box - does the column need to be cut?

You need to test fit it to find out.

I had to cut my 66’ Barracuda and use their u joint kit. Worked better than I expected. Never realized how clunky the factory joint is let alone how big the whole thing is till I swapped it over.

I did a test fit and it fits but I'm wondering if it fits because I accidentally collapsed the column shaft or if it fits because power steering columns are supposed to fit with no trimming?
