33 Coupe Steering Column 9        11/2/03

I bent a new piece of stainless brake line that I had left over from the sway-bar project. I also added two new clamps to hold it in place which you can see one below. The other is on the back side of the frame where you can't see.
 

 

 

Here you can see the rubber that will be used under and around the brake line to protect it from rubbing a hole in it.
 

 

 

I lifted the line and slid the rubber under it and then I trimmed off the excess. Now I'm ready to bolt the bracket/support on top which will fold the remaining small piece that is sticking up over the top of the line to seal the deal. This worked great and acts like a clamp at the same time.
 

 

 

I know it's a mess in there but the column is just about done at this point and is ready for a steering wheel to be bolted up. The column needs to have the tilt lever installed along with the wiring and that's it. My wiring harness came with a GM style plug so this shouldn't be a big deal.
