Steering column Support-Pic
Hi-
Do I have this on upside down?
Can't remember how it goes, but looking at it I think it may be wrong.
Not sure if the bracket support goes to top or bottom.
Thanks

Makes it easier to position the clamp.

I flipped it over.
Thought it was upside down because looking through the hole in the firewall it didn't seem like the steering column would line up with the flange on the bottom.
Thanks for the quick replies!

And the clutch return spring retainer is also on backwards in the photo; flip it over.

I missed that one. It would be hard to hook the spring onto it the way it is

Yuup. And flip over the clutch return spring retainer so the spring will hook behind it.
