yay its finnished! My Comp O cobra
- Thread starter speedbunch
- Start date
so I havent had much time to work on the car, but i have decided i want to use the sn-95 steering column.
a few reasons are
tilt
"cobra" air bag
cruise control
no re wire of hazzards, turn signal, ignition, and I can use the pats key system
hope I am not crazy for doing all this
I had a extra 86 steering column to cut down and work with,
86 columnn vs. the 03 column (my 93 column has a crush section in the column that will crush easy in a collision.
I cut the 86 column thinking that it would require welding of the steering shaft
disection of the shaft I found ford has the same center shaft in the 86 as they do in the 03!
pulling apart the 03 column you can see the same style shaft
the 86 slides right on the 03 and will allow the shaft to retract in the event of a crash!
this is the basic idea i am going with I still have to shorten it a bit and weld on a flange so the 86 section will bolt up to the 03 upper.

looks really good
thanks are those xxr527 wheels you have on your car? I may get those for this car.
Nice! Love the "cobra" airbag setup, that'll look real slick.
Take payment in the form of testicles? Cause I would give both of mine for that car. Or trade my car either one haha. Sick fox!
