Re: tilt column rebuild Qs
Service manual is a great source of info., exploded view for reassembly and special tools required, pullers, slide hammer. The two pivot pins can be pulled with a bolt, nut, washer, and a socket of the correct size...

Re: tilt column rebuild Qs
you know thats a good idea. I didnt even think of my 70 chevy service manual.
ill check out those websites now. the bearings still feel good so hopefully I wont have to replace them. I mainly have to tear apart the upper portion where the tilt is to run the turn signal switch wiring. but Im check those bearings for sure now classic heartbeats.....ill drop wes an e mail
