The arms look right, but the upper column looks like a 29 style with the 30-1 wheel.

Well That Is What I Got With The Car, I Did Have To Drill Holes In The New Steering Upper Bushing And Tap Them For The Screws ,, Went Well
So It Looks Ok To Reinstall The Box Top Levers And Lower Steering Control Rod Arms ?? Look Ok Right

Thanks

You have the right collar. I didn't see that picture earlier and from the first picture I thought it was the 29 style.:o

Yes, I sent a long reply, that must have been blocked and lost into cyberspace. I then tried to send an email and was again blocked. I don't have time to jump through a lot of hoops to try to help, so you'd have to unblock something.

Joe, rather than try to unblock or whatever needs to be done, just read this thread and what I did in reply #6. The whole thread should be read for some ideas. Evaporust works well also, but is quite expensive to fill the gas tank with it. I don't know how bad the rust is in your tank, but by flushing out the loose stuff for starters, then using a few gallons of Evaporust on the bottom, should be a big help. You might need to use a magnetic block heater stuck to the bottom of the gas tank though, because molasses and Evaporust work best when quite warm.

Be sure to use the filter in the tank valve. I use them even in spotless tanks.

Ok Tom I'LL Only Use 5 Gal Of Evapo-Rust And Rock The Car Back & Forth
The Rust Is Not To Bad, I Think Its Mostly Sediment Small Stuff.

After I Flush Out The Tank , Should I Flush It Out With Lacquer Thinner To Dry It Out ??
Thanks

fill the tank with it and do it right...
the entire inners need to soak in it not just be splashed by the cleaner to dissolve the rust
 
that is a lot of lacquer thinner.
I used mineral spirits when I flushed mine. Cheaper, and way less volatile

that is also how I test carbs
