Ok You need a longer shaft. The 79 is longer than the 88 but still 15/16" to short for the manual. I haven't tried the column from the 79 but I presume it's longer. What I did was cut the shaft and extend it. However you need to scribe a mark down the shaft when you cut it to line it up(Silly me my S. wheel is out 90 degs.) The total length of the shaft between yolks was 7 3/4".
You might be able to buy the FR steering extension coupler as well. You will need a clockwise water pump or an Idler pully where the ps was. Do you have AC? In that case you would prob. need idler. Belt size depends which route you take. Hope that helps. ------------------ 82 Mercury Capri 302. Comp. Cams Tremec 3550 3.73's 12.8@106 N/AKevin's Capri |
