LMC Steering column install
Hi all,
Hope you’re having a great week! I’m in the middle of the LMC steering column install and have two quick questions. 1. I can’t seem to get the stewing spline bolt seated - see picture. Any helpful hints? 2. The column comes with a grey wire separate from the harness. I thought it could be for the horn but that spot looks filled. This is different than the stock setup. Any ideas on what this could be? Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: LMC Steering column install
Thank you! Will do.
@53burb - do you have any more photos of the paint job on the suburban in your signature? Mine goes into paint next week and I'm thinking about going that route. Thanks! |

Re: LMC Steering column install
Is the intermediate shaft on the bottom of the column all the way? When on correctly, the lower shaft of the column has a concave depression or cut out the bolt rests on. Maybe that's what's not lining up (the intermediate shaft and that bolt slot).

Re: LMC Steering column install
That's perfect thank you! I'm going to send it to the painter and see what he thinks.

Re: LMC Steering column install
If (And it is a big if) the new column is using factory colors for the wiring then a light gray wire may be for illumination of the shift indicator. It would splice into the dash light circuit.
The factory column used a fiber optic cable to light the shifter but the aftermarket may not. This is just a assumption I made from my desk here in Oregon. Good luck.
