Steering Column Floor Mo unt 55-57 Chevy 2in Col.

The Borgeson Steering Column Floor Mount for 1955–57 Chevy fullsize cars with 2-inch diameter tube columns is a purpose-built bracket designed for custom steering installations and frame modifications. This component solves a critical alignment challenge when fabricating custom chassis, converting classic Chevrolets to manual steering systems, or repositioning the steering column for ergonomic improvements during a frame-off restoration. Builders and restoration shops rely on this mount to achieve clean, structurally sound column attachment points without cutting into original frame rails.

Constructed from aluminum and finished in natural (uncoated) form, the Steering Column Floor Mount features a swivel design that accommodates angle adjustments during installation—a practical detail that accounts for manufacturing tolerances and custom frame geometry. The aluminum construction keeps weight minimal (0.73 lbs) while providing rigidity at the floor attachment point; this lightweight approach preserves suspension geometry and minimizes unsprung mass. The mounting plate bolts directly to the floor pan, distributing column loads across a wider surface area to prevent stress concentration and cracking at the weld seam, a common failure point in budget restorations.

Frame-off restoration specialists, hot rod builders, and vintage car enthusiasts tackling Chevy models from the mid-1950s will find this bracket essential when upgrading to modern steering components or custom column angles. The 2-inch diameter tube specification matches original Chevy steering columns of that era, ensuring straightforward fitment without adapters. Installation requires basic welding skills for secure floor pan mounting and verification that the swivel mechanism is locked in its final position once alignment is confirmed—a five-minute step that prevents column vibration during highway driving.
