Re: What does this spring do?

You can probably get away with cutting one or two turns off that spring to give you a little more length. The lower spring should not be compressed. Just snug.

I rebuilt my lower column bearing. Check your upper bearing to make sure it is seated properly. You should have no significant slop side to side or up/down once things are properly installed.

New upper and new lower bearings are available from vendors.
