You need this little bracket. It bolts to the firewall with 2 bolts. Then, you use that round clamp to clamp the steering column to this bracket.

Here's it all installed in place. It's hard to see exactly whats going on, because it's all painted the same color.

This picture is taken from where the engine should sit.

Then, you bolt the intermediate shaft into place between the column and steering box. Collapse as needed.

Mine is a motorhome column and it was exactly the same length as the original, so no collapsing was needed.

Collapsing the shaft is easy to do if you have to. I've done it before when installing van tilts.
