I have seen post related to lowering steering column.
Under my column I see , I think it was 2 or 4 bolts that support upper part of column. If I remove these bolts, and replace with longer bolts and spacers, does that work to slightly lower column, or will something end up in a bind? Otherwise am I asking for trouble?
Thanks

That is how most people have lowered their steering column. I don't remember how far you can drop it, believe it to be about 1" to 1 1/2" inches. Some one reported that their coach had a steering column drop, with square tubing providing a firm support, rather than stacking individual spacers on longer bolts.

Sir: If you use the cradle mount out of a 88-94 chevy pu and it will lower it 1".
