Cut off the input shaft from the Subaru rack, ground it down to presssfit inside the Volvo column, tigged them together.
I'll put a pin in the column between the two pieces, but I'm sure they're not going anywhere.
Got an oil seal that should work.
The way it worked out, I can keep the intermediate (Ford DD column to Subaru spline) shaft as-is. Nice to not have to fool around with that.
Next I have to weld the idler arm mount back into place. Hoping I can do it without pulling the engine.
And the remote oil filter kit is en-route.
Then we'll see what's what. If the steering is satisfactory, I'm thinking big ass radiator comes next.
