Hey fellas was wondering if you guys had any insight on a good colum to replace my stock one, maybe a tilt colum and or aftermarket one. Also and suggestions for rebuild kit and new wheel/hub combo. My current one is pretty loose and also since I switched to a floor shifter Im not dig'n the old gear selector and stuff.

I got my steering column parts from:

Upper and lower bearings are easy to do, and all my slop disappeared.

Thanks rob, thats what I was looking at getting...and just re-spraying the column. Probably save cash that way too!

I forgot to tell you if you want to get rid of the column shifter, you can always pick up a 4 speed floor shift column.

Is that a factory automatic column you have? Hmmm. Those are hard to find around here. Joe
