The TOP COLUMN is the correct length, non-tilt style ididit unit for 1953-62 Corvettes. The CENTER ididit tilt-column is the one that can be used with transmission floor-shift cars. This is great for pickups or passenger cars where a column shift is not required or not wanted. The LOWER COLUMN is specifically for tri-five Chevys. This is the correct length ididit column-shift with tilt. This 1955-7 Chevy column is complete with a neutral safety switch shown near the bottom outside of the tube. Just above the column (center) is a “plug-in” crossover kit for tri-fives so you can add flashers to a stock tri-five electrically system.

All of the columns are shown with a multi-pin connector, coming out of the column tube. Most aftermarket wiring systems include a compatible “pig-tail” that connect their wiring kit to the ididit column’s turn-signals and flashers through this multi-pin connector. Since we are dealers for ididit and Flaming River, we carry a complete line of column accessories to complete your Jim Meyer IFS or chassis order. We offer 3 different styles of lower-column floor hold-down brackets, shown at the ends of each column. Column drops, Flaming River nickel-plated and forged trunnion U-joints, flat-sided steering shafts, steering support bearings, steering wheel adapters and column: shift, tilt, and turn signal arms and column shift indicator and pointer are in stock at industry standard prices.

To hold the more modern ididit column with splined-shaft, Jim Meyer makes a firewall bracket (shown) that holds the end of the column to the firewall. Modifications will need to be made to the bottom of a stock column and this bracket is also featured in his lower column modification kit.
