Use a 32" if this is going to be a floor shift and a 33" if you are going column shift.

We have part # EPSC-S in stock, 33" column shift paintable grade stainless steel. Paint it black and good to go! We also have all the other components to complete the install like your floor mounts, column drops and the universal joints.

OK, can You tell me why the differense in lenght for floor shift and collumnshift ?

For the conversion I think will need the following:

Cullomn
C5356PSK-TT Tilt - complete, kit
CPCCD-4 4-1/2" drop, universal
CPP1700-11 custom column, 11/16” x 36 to 1”DD

CPFM Universal Floor plate
Anything i have forgotten ?
I have the powersteering pump

That parts list looks good. The difference in the length is for the shift mech on the column itself.

What column would I use on a 56 F100 with a Grand Torino sub frame mod?

Should be the same length. All depends on were the steering box is on that subframe. If its a front steer (in front of the cross member) then that will be just fine.

Hi Aaron

Thanks for the shipping quote.
I just saw the video with Jeff Norton, saying that you are comming with a CPP version of the steering box for 53-56 ford trucks.
Can You say something about when it is comming and pricing, maybee I should wait for that box if itīs not to far away ?
