Steering Column

For those racers out there...

I want to replace my current stripped stock steering column (shaft) with standard race shaft.

Is there a source for direct replacement? What are you EP guys doing for a steering column?

Thanks

On my EP 7.. that is still getting all the parts pulled together..
I am planning on using a tilt column from a TII/GXL.
Main reason for this is to be able to put the wheel where I want it with the seat sitting on the floor. Also if I have a co-driver for anything it adds a bit of flexibility.

IF... IF I need to save weight.. I will go with the standard shaft from coleman with joints on it for collapse.. and a Heim joint off the cage to hang it.

If you cant piece together a steering system from there.. you must not have a good net connection or something..
