Re: '64 Steering column into CV swap

IS this an OE bearing from a '65 or later? Just seems easier if I could find a factory part and if it were available.

'64 Steering column into CV swap

I've recently installed a CV IFS into my '64 and haven't figured out the steering yet. I want to keep my original column but it has the attached box.
