It goes where the linkage makes the transformation from the steering column to the frame.

Like I said, It goes /gets welded into the rod coming off the steering column per directions. You have the part # I guess, and I assume you have this, http://www.performanceaccessories.co...ions/60063.pdf . Seems pretty clear to me.


Not that it's a big deal, but, You should add the fact that's it's a sport to your sig.

Yes, pulling the linkage out of the plastic bushing can be a PITA. Spray it with some penetrating oil first. Then pry it out.
