8. Connect the included horn wire into the column horn contact switch. You can now install the steering

column tube and mount it where it was originally at the dash point. The tube should be sitting on the
column support bracket or very close to it. You can now install the provided clamp over the column to
the support and tighten in place. Plug the horn wire into existing vehicle horn wire after cutting to
length. (You may use your old horn wire but new wire and connectors are provided if needed.)

9. Now its time to hook the steering shaft to the new rack and pinion. Place the provided brass washer

over the shaft and up against the bearing and install the provided u-joint to the column shaft and snug
the thru bolt. At this time you need to install the provided u-joint on the pinion and install the
intermediate DD shaft when you are installing the column shaft. That way you can push it all together
at once. You must phase the u-joints 90 degrees out meaning the top and the bottom joint yokes
must face opposite of each other.
