Can anyone measure a 'standard' Sierra column for me (from where it joins the rack to where it the steering wheel attaches) and let me know the total length please?

Thanks

i'm confused.

is that the column, or the track rod length you want?

i can't offer measurements at the min, but some clarification might help others reply.

Hi, Ive just measured one up at 85cm total length.

Bother, I was hoping that it was a bit longer than that so I could use one without modification on my Middy.

Thanks Rich

Could you not lengthen it? Its straight so could be cut and sleeved. Let me know if you want a photo as I can take one of it to give you a better idea.

Rich

Rich,

Thanks, a photo would be most helpful. did the 85cm include the downlink?

Thanks

JC

BTTT - can anyone answer this please?

Hope you can see the attached picture - not posted one with an attachment before plus the flash reflected on the steel ruler but the overall colunm length without any joints or extensions is about 85cm

Looks like my first attempt at attaching a photo failed. Will try again but if this fails will need help or could email it to you.

Just seen a message that the file is too big to upload so have shrunk it - here goes.......third time lucky?

Perfect. Thanks very much for persisting with it! Looks like when I add the downlink it will be just the right size. Of course, I planned this............
