From the upright to the steering arm, there will be bolted connections to attach the two together rigidly. The tie rods will have rod-ends (spherical bearings) or clevises as the connection point depending on what is needed, same with the center link. The centrelink will be connected to the rack using either a rod end (and bolted) or using a set screw and jam nuts. Past the firewall, there will be a female spline rod to connect with the male spline end of the rack. Connected to the female spline will be a male spline rod, connected to a u-joint (to allow for tilt adjustability of the steering wheel) along with a tilting mechanism similar to the one shown below. Lastly, there will be a male spline connecting steering wheel to the u-joint with a telescoping mechanism (will probably require a female spline with a slide fit and pins for adjustability). The column will be held up using a mounting jig with a collar and L bar with a shear pin (to allow for collapse).
