Re: Easier steering for 35 Tudor?
Let me be more specific! Can I use my ‘35 steering column w the ‘39 steering box? Can I simply modify the ‘39 box mount holes to bolt to existing frame mounting hardware?

Re: Easier steering for 35 Tudor?
It sounds like using the 37-39 S Box while I can use the 35 steering wheel Ill need a,:
- 37-39 column
- 37-39 S Box
- conversion mount bracket
???
Is that all the parts?
Thx
