A little planning goes a long ways-----Didn't you do a bit of research beforehand??? There are numerous posts about "cowl steering" over on the HAMB website. I suggest you look over there---they have a good "search" function. One of the reasons that you will have a problem getting any shop to "extend" the sector shaft is because of the liability they incur by welding on a steering component. If it breaks going down the road and kills somebody, the buck will stop at their shop after all the lawsuits shake out.
