has anyone got pictures of modified steering columns in mini hayabusa, i feel the steering wheel is a bit vertical even after i have fitted the metal drop bracket from mini spares, i think i will make a new bracket and column to suit my needs, any help appreciated

Quite a common opinion. Most have gone with either fitting a different column or welding in a UJ to allow it to sit at a friendlier less truck like angle

ford fiesta column. make your own upper bracket and position the steering wheel where ever you want it. The uj on the bottom even has the same size splines as the mini rack. Had to shorten it slightly for the minus so should fit a standard mini.

what year of fiesta is it? yeh the driving position of the mini setup is not the best especially if you are tall with a low seat

About a 1990 pre airbag version. We just went to a scrappie measuring column's untill we found one roughly the right length with a universal joint somewhere near the bottom.

what about the monte carlo, does that steering setup work with a road kit type kit?
