Another local builder...
here's mine, welded nuts in the ends of the tubes so it bolts in.

If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

Hi how ever you do it it is a good idea to try and incorporate some variance / adjustment for the height. Very rarely dose a wheel that has been
placed in situ in the workshop feel absolutely right when you start driving the car on the road.

Mark - Is your column just supported by cable ties?
How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

What do you think the cable ties are for?
Seriously. the column has about 2" vertical adjustment within the frame
