I don't know much on early columns, but late columns (late 60s, early 70s, like the GM tilt columns we all use) have a shift quadrant in them. Even if you do not care to get down to first gear, you may need to play around with the linkage's ratios to get the quadrant (if your column has such a thing) to line up with the correct places with the transmissions detentes.
If you are using a GM column, you can pull a 4speed shift quadrant out of a junk yard car.
