Into this and cut the bracket.

 

I can get on and work out how the steering box and column will work.

Assembled it today and it fits.  Sort of.  The shaft fits fine but it sticks into the cab too much.  I was expecting this from other installs so will now be sourcing a 2″ body lift kit

Temp 2″ lift.  Thanks to some 2×4 I had

temp 2"lift

Made some spacers from a 50mm Nylon 6 rod and  created my own kit.
