=== Assembling & Fitting the Modified Steering Column === Loosely assemble the modified column and determine the angle you want the motor at. Check for clearance between the motor and the clutch pedal assembly (if you choose to mount it upwards). If you use the same measurements as posted, it should all fit (you may need to slide the column towards the driver on the front mounts). https://dev.z31library.com/xenonzcar_archive/z31/electric_columnZ/electric%20column%20Z/8.png The clutch pedal return spring will come close to the motor, but it should (barely) clear. My motor ended up at approximately a 40 degree angle to the flat side of the column mount. https://dev.z31library.com/xenonzcar_archive/z31/electric_columnZ/electric%20column%20Z/9.png https://dev.z31library.com/xenonzcar_archive/z31/electric_columnZ/electric%20column%20Z/10.png https://dev.z31library.com/xenonzcar_archive/z31/electric_columnZ/electric%20column%20Z/11.png Your brake switches may not clear with the motor mounted upwards. I was able to mount the upper one, but not the lower one. This wasnβt a huge concern for me (no cruise control & manual transmission), but alternative measures may be needed if the motor is mounted up. https://dev.z31library.com/xenonzcar_archive/z31/electric_columnZ/electric%20column%20Z/12.png
