Question
Would a 90 degree gearbox in between two steering shafts connecting the steering wheel and steering rack be considered part of the "steering column", and be allowed to pass through the vertical slot in the internal cross section template?
Answer
The steering column comprises the shaft, couplings and rotating components.
The slot in the template is intended only for these components.
Any component may utilize the 50mm radius semicircle cutouts.
