Hi,

Could someone tell me if this column is ok for the IVA? Not sure if its a collapsible type?

Many Thanks,
Jon

Pretty sure that is collapsible, as the smaller diameter part will push up into the bigger upper part?

But can't remember what iva states is needed off hand

Column needs to deform away from the occupant so offsetting the column with the UJ's covers most of the recomendations

Excellent, I'll add this to the refurb pile then!

Thanks.

Don't you need two collapsible items?
On my IVA I tried saying that my Sierra column was collapsible due to the pin would break and the outer would slide down the inner, however my tester wanted two items hence I had to fit a collapsible boss

Think he's wrong there, as a sierra column has two collapsible points, the lower triangle shaft part will push up into the upper part, and you've got the corrugated part at the top too

Ah now you mention it I was missing the corrugated section due to having an MNR column so now I remember why I had to have the collapsible boss
So Ignore me lol
