Re: Ignition Switch Tumbler
54. Not at all difficult, just a PITA. First remove the steering wheel with a puller. Next, remove the lock plate with the proper tool. Next remove the signal light switch. You won't have to pull the switch all the way out. There is enough wire on it to pull it up and over the steering shaft. Next look for a screw that looks like it goes into the ign lock cylinder. The screw may be a torx head or phillips. Remove the screw and leave the lock in the locked position. Pull it straight out. now remove the key from the new cylinder and slide it in keeping the cylinder lined up with the locked position. The cylinder will stop once bottomed out. Now put the screw back in, test it. and reassemble all the rest of the stuff you took out. jim

Little stuff left to do is mount winch, wet sand & buff out and build belly pan\running boards. Body work takes lots and LOTS of beer!!!! God, Guts and Guns made America and God, Guts and Guns will preserve it! The worst thing you could do is get into my sights, but that don't matter, you'll never know it, cause you'll never hear the shot  Jim or Paladin whichever you choose.
