After looking for months at all of the steering columns out there, I decided to do something a little different. I like the slim look of the stock column, and didn't want a hefty tilt column. Plus I wanted a collapsible column since my C4 steering rack is out in front of the cross member, so I bought the Woodward safety column that is spec for NASCAR, and many other racing series. It collapses up to 11 inches, unlike other columns that maybe collapse 4 inches. It is very lightweight, and it can be adjusted in or out a couple inches. It is built similar to a telescoping driveshaft. It also has a quick-release. It is very well made, and was pretty easy to install. It can be completely removed in 5 minutes that I have to do a few times already during mock up. Since it is 1.5 inches in diameter instead of the 2 inch stock column, I had a split bushing made, and used the stock column mount.
It was $460 for the column. http://www.woodwardsteering.com/
