Easy job, you will need cover top etc. I don't think I changed the steering column on mine though, I think I did some cutting and grinding on my old one and got it to work. I think the one I bought is still sitting there. The 06 does have some trouble with HLNR being all in line, with not much for range of movement. Our 806 is awfully high houred and we use it on the loader almost all the time. We keep things adjusted properly and still had too much trouble with it. Seemed once two twice a year we were fixing it. There is a lot of things that wear that give just a little bit of play and with such a small range of movement not very much play is tolerated. If you are using it to push snow and put 100 hours a year on or something, probably be better to rebuild your existing top. If you use it as a chore tractor and have had the top off several times, switch it over. Mine cost me $150 out of a salvage yard. There is no reason you should have to pay more than $300 to do it. If the 06 didn't have a problem with that shift, they wouldn't have switched to a different one with the 56 series.
