C9x, thanks for the tip about the stop nuts on the axle, I will check mine. I just got off the phone with the tech guy at Lokar and unfortunately they do not support any link between their shifter and the lever at the bottom of the Camaro column so If I use the Camaro column I will have to disable the lock feature somehow or provide a hidden lever under the dash to provide a locking mechanism. Now I am back to scratching my head. Can Henry Rifle recall any more details about his setup regarding the shift lever at the bottom of the column? In my case it would only be needed to lock the column. Back to the drawing board!
