Wanted Central Florida: FJ40 - Lower Steering Column to Dash Mount Bracket

Vehicle Model

1. 40 Series

If I feel up to it this weekend I am going to try to convert my FJ40 to EPS (Electric Power Steering). Shark56 has done 3 of them and he highly recommends I weld the bottom steering column bracket (that holds the column in place at the dash) to the column tube, which I plan to do. I have also been trying to decide where to put the adjustment knob so it will be easy to reach but not stick out like a sore thumb. I saw these top and bottom brackets online, and the bottom column bracket has an EGR warning light on it (see photo below). If I were to remove that light, it would be the perfect place to mount the EPS adjustment knob. Does anyone have one of these that they don't need or want?

Here’s one, do you need the other parts in the photo also?

Nope, just that piece.

You can probably just weld a 90* piece with a hole in it for your adjustment knob right onto that bracket and create the same part

That's what I'm thinking too.
