Steering column length

Post by 62Cometman »

Does anyone know what the length for the original steering shaft that runs through the column is? My steering box is pretty sloppy and id like to replace it, but all i can find is for the 64-66 Mustang which im positive is longer but im thinking about maybe taking it to a machinist to have it machined down and have splines put on all that jazz.
62 Comet 170, dagneham trans, 2.8 7.25 rear 260 T5 8 inch swap planned for the future.
