Hey tmoble how are things going? No we did not move the column, but we did shorten it quite a bit. It was almost a straight shot but the stock rag joint (the one in the picture) did bind a little when we drove it the first time. So we replaced it with a Borgeson Steering U-Joint and it fiixed the issue. If you would like I can stop by my buddy's house and take a picture. Here is a picture of how much we shorten the column.

your work and skills are off the hook - great to read thru your thread
Thanks for the compliments man. As far as the AD truck I drove it and there is no problems with turns of any kind since we installed the borgeson steering u-joint before you could feel a slight wobble while turning the wheels. Now the truck rides straight as an arrow and handles great. The headers are 1st Gen camaro.
