Tilt column info
I need to get the bowl of the tilt wheel column off and fixed. To make it a non automatic tilt. Anybody have a step by step instructions on how to do this with out taking it a part. Is there a way to do it without taking it a part? I can cut the hump out I think and the gear selector out but what do I need to fill it up and how? I have the turn signal part off and have no problem fixing it. I plan to body fill those up.
Any help guy's will be appreciated.

Re: Tilt column info
I had a buddy do this, he cut off the hump and used kitty hair fiberglass. Other than being able to spin the cup, you could not tell.

Re: Tilt column info
Metal doc did a great job on his. Maybe he can give some tips. Grind, clean, fiberglass, paint
But how to stop the cup from spinning?
