Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)
I am glad they sponsored you but I had a terrible experience with them. I found there sales rep to be super rude to me a few weeks back. They make nice products but they need some work on there customer service.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)
 Here is a picture of a 1968 non-tilt column at the area in question, apparently there are some differences between 1967-68 Columns because mine doesnt have those slots cut in it under the wiring loom shield like yours. I dont know if this is helpfull at all but I thought it couldnt hurt to have a good reference picture.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)
Hey Mike, have you figured out your column issue? I have a 67, and 68 non tilt columns, and they both have the same wire cover and two small tabs that it slides under. I couldnt find slots like yours anywhere on either column. Hope you already have it sorted out.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)
A couple of questions that could clear up a few things for us. Is it a 1967 GM Truck Column, 36"L X 3/4" OD shaft? Is it a genuine GM column or a Reproduction? Is it tilt or non-tilt? A little more information would be helpfull. Im sure there are tons of experts on here that could help you with this, now if we could only get them to chime in. |

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)
could it be that the slots are for tabs that are on the original cover itself?
it might be that the cover sticks in on one end and get screwed tight on the other end or that the tabs are hooked and on both sides and you need to push it in untill the tabs fall in the holes and the setup click shut , it would make more sense in a factory setup than using 4 clips to hold it down
