does anyone know what the output on a tc steering column is
i spoke with flaming river and he told me the mustang is a "hollow 1" DD shaft" and if the tc is the same id like to swap it to a flaming river shaft and loose the rag joint
thanks

That sounds right. I just crushed my parts car so its not so easy for me to go look.

Sorry for no definitive answer, but I I think the Mustang and the Tbird used the same shaft dimensions.

I used the Flaming River one, it allows adjustment of the shaft which does require you to mount it measure and then cut the shaft. I never realized I "pulled" on the steering wheel slightly until I put this on. Now I keep a light hand on the wheel.

They're the same. I actually pulled the rag joint assembly off an extra TC column I have in storage for my 93 LX DD. I have the one off it to rebuild now for my SVO.
