My attempt at PS

OK after extensive review and study of Capts PS application heres my attempt at it. Sorry Capt I know yours is tried and true but I just had to give it a try.After all it was your design that nudged me to give it an attempt.All cutting was done on band saw with a lot of messaging with 4" grinder and file. Spacers cut from plate steel and trued on drill press which improvised as vertical lathe. Still need to weld spacer to PS plate.Will update as I progress on install.

Re: My attempt at PS

OK as I progress in my fab up of parts I thought,it would be cool to be able to pull column without having to pull steering wheel. So I came up with this. Use intermediate shaft from the later truck from rag joint to column.My thinking is if I ever want to upgrade to newer tilt keyed column the shaft will be in place.
