    M211 / M215 Part needed

    M211/M215 part needed -- steering colume to dash mount jland, I would not replace the rubber mount with solid steel, the rubber mount acts as a vib cushion/shock absorbor. Think that was the original intent. I agree with the other sugestions to make one out of the hard rubber. Good luck. Tony
