    I also have a pair of Robertos yokes and I am more than happy with them. Perfection springs to mind.

    Be warned Stef... those columns are aluminium alloy so if you plan to weld a connector rod on it needs specialist welding. And if you go that way be very careful about heat damaging the bearings in the bottom of the columns - can cause them to seize very easily and this will cause binding when you turn the yokes left/right,

    And don't try to use bolts to do the job - been there, done that!

    im hoping to do it without welding.

    What problems did your run into with bolts ?

    ive seen so many approaches allready to this. everybody seems to do it differently.

    Regards,
    my compliments Roberto...its nut just close when it comes to fitting, but its an EXACT fit !!

    Awesome job !

    All i have to do is cut a hole in the front of the yoke and i can even use the original mounting plate and nut that comes with the column.

    You're right, this thread as of this post only has had 311 views But it has happened, others have posted pictures and they get hit hard with the BW.

    BTW Stef, in case you haven't noticed I posted your pic here
