Re: Identifying a CV Front End

I've noticed two different types of upper frame mounts. One looks to be aluminum and one style is steel. Any idea why the two types?

Re: Steering column confusion

I don't believe an aftermarket column will allow me to use my stock steering wheel. I want to keep the original 64 wheel.

If i'm wrong on this, please let me know
