Mid 80's steering wheel install

[JOJABOY]

It's definitely something though and with outside perspectives....you may figure it out easier. With the shaft pulled all the way up and the original 67-72 turn signal mechanism and cancel cam the S-10 style steering wheel should fit perfect. there should be about 1/8" gap between the bottom of the wheel and the top of the column housing.

And when you do get it on correctly....I found a good way to get it lined up centered on the splines. Put it on as close to straight as you can. Drive around the block and see how off you are. Then pull it up where the wheels are straight (even if wheel is of centered) Put a piece of tape down the top of the wheel and column then take a knife and cut it along the wheel/column separation. Then you can pull the wheel off and move it a spline or two to get it lined up straight.
