Howdy.
I have a '65 c10, which has a 1971 Chevrolet truck, non-tilt steering column, for an automatic, in it. It was in there when I bought it. I am curious about any maintenance that it may require from time to time? Lube, adjustments... anything at all really. I have the '63 and '65 supplement shop manuals for my truck, but they don't cover 1971 ![]() Thanks a bunch. -W |

fine69,
thanks for the reply. I've had the truck for several years and I notice the grease there with the joints... so, thought I'd ask, just in case. -W |

Re: 1971 Chevy truck steering automatic column maintenance?
Over the years I have pulled mine out just to keep it grease but unfortunately when steering columns start to wear down all you can do is buy a new one. I had to three years ago from this chevy truck steering column dealer click here.
