I have a '67 C-10 with PS and Grant steering wheel installed by the PO. You can move the steering wheel side to side/ up to down on the stock (non-tilt) column. The wheel is tight on the shaft, but it looks like the shaft is sloppy in the column.

I looked on a few parts suppliers on the board, but only found replacement parts for the tilt columns. Anyone know where I can get the (bushing/bearing?) for the upper part of the column; assuming that's what the problem is?

Thanks,
