I'd like to learn what that difference is, as I have a tilt column and had intended it for a 4 speed application.
Thanks

Manual column has a short bracket that sticks out about1 1/2 inches, and is straight, while the auto trans column has a bracket at the same position that has a double bend and sticks out about 2 1/2 inches. Both brackets have a single hole where the backdrive rod attaches.

Thanks, now I have to go out in my unheated storage building and dig it out.
