Abstract: An integrated steering column structural system for distributing a load of a steering column within a vehicle is disclosed. The structural system includes a steering column bracket for retaining the steering column and for distributing the steering column load throughout the vehicle. The structural system further includes a plurality of load distribution components for receiving the load of the steering column and ultimately distributing the load to a vehicle structural frame. The steering column bracket utilizes a plurality of pathways through which to distribute the load of the steering column to the load distribution components.
