69 340-6pak Rag Top
Hey guys,
I have a 69 Dart that was originally a column shift and several years ago I purchased a floor shift column for it. After receiving it I noticed that the lower 2 bolt flange was not on it and I didn't think much about it since it would be a long time before I got to that point anyway. Fast forward to today I have restored the column, and reassembled it not thinking about the 2 bolt flange (Again), I am taking it apart again. Now heres the problem the 2 bolt flange will not go over either end of the column because of protrusions sticking out of the column. I know the lower 2 protrusions are for the flange to fit against as it bolts to the 3 bolt firewall flange, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to get the 2 bolt flange over and down to the lower part of the column. Here's some pics. Any help would really be appreciated.
