2. Extend a steering column to give greater knee clearance by cutting and sleeving then welding with a gash cut into each end of cut column does it impact the steerinig in a negative way
Wouldn't impact the steering, but not the best solution. for a small amount, fit a spacer boss, for more, remount the column be redoing the brackets and extending the bar between column and rack.
3, Take the sub frame of a cobra seat and bolt directly to floor i think this is easy and safe
is it side or base mount? Mounting with no subframe is fine, but Id want to be attaching it to lugs welded to the chassis rails rather than an alloy floor.
