ALL earlies (61-->64) I have seen have the steering box mounted in a different angle than the 65-->67's.. You can put in a 64 steering column into a 61 as the steering box is mounted at the same mounting angle, simply use the matching dash bracket for the 61-->64 steering column you want to use. The 64 is all by itself, using the EXACT same mounting bracket ON THE TUBE as the 65-->67's , HOWEVER mounted in a lower position and using its matching dash mounting bracket. I have also seen wrong year ones pushed, however that creates a bind on the upper bearing in the steering box. You can re drill and or augur your mounting holes for the steering box to use the 65-->67 in an early, vice versa. I have the columns used if that is what you want or rebuilt, or also I make a custom triangle mount 61-->63 automatic column for the ones that never were. I also, have the H/D upper shift tube supports in stock also. (the pc riveted in and usually broken)
