I did have to drill a hole to get the carriage behind the inner fender to get the bolt out of the frame. Not a big deal. I have enough glass to do that job. My plan is to reuse the carriage bolts then torque it down plus use some locktite just to make sure those bolts will not come loose.
We are still waiting on the brace to show up on the front door.
You removed the brake master cylinder! Very clever! Dunno if that's easier than pulling the column, but if you were doing a brake job anyway...
Please post photos when you get the Borgeson box installed! People are always asking about header clearance.
The previous owner was in the process of replacing brake lines. In fact, the front calipers were missing. The brake booster and master cylinder had no fluid in them since the lines are open on the front. Easy enough to take off so I can get to the column shaft.
Power steering work tomorrow.
Brakes work Sunday.
Hopefully, test drive after brakes.

The power steering upgrade is done. I can hear air in the system. Eventually, we will get it to bleed out.
Brakes - are all installed. I had a tough time getting the rear hardline fitting to spin on the steel brake line. I eventually got it loose. I have a motive power bleeder but missing one of the hooks. It made a mess.
