The angle of the steering box mounting plate. It tilts the center line of the pinion closer or further from the inner fenderwell. That moves the column a little. Not sure how much. Other than that it bolts in.

A friend of mine has a rack and pinion set up in his b body k frame. I would like to change them to get some weight off my front end.

Is this so it can steer like a covered wagon? It should make you feel like a young buck again. Lol

I took a 1968 Hemi Roadrunner K member and put it in a 1970 Cahllenger years ago to run NHRA stock Bolted in and all the steering hooked up fine as far as front end alignment and driving was concerned NHRA made me put a sway bar back in it, so that got a little sticky for one year
