What's the thread/pitch for the bolt that goes into the steering column? The one that secures the steering wheel hub to the column. I have a bag of bolts from FFR but none of them fit...

Hi Jeff,
Would you have the specs for the steering pillow block bearing (the one at the top)? Of all the things to have on my POL. I figured I would just pick one up from Grainger or McMaster.

Thanks

Is F5 not using the stock Ford shaft anymore? The Fox body etc. used a 10-1.50 x 25mm bolt. The way it's posted, I see it as bolting the hub to the column shaft itself.

They gave that up about 20 years ago with the Mk2.
