Re: Need help with Steering Column

The new columns don't have he detent in them like the original. You just have to line it up and bolt it in place.

Re: Need help with Steering Column

That tilt column is fine you are gonna love it, if the separation is bothering you, push on it and tap it lightly with a chisel tip where that tang fits into the groove to see if that will tighten it up. Other than that small cosmetic flaw that nobody will ever see I don't think it will ever hinder the performance of the column in any way. And if somebody does see the flaw in the column under the dash of your truck, they are WAY to nosey!! Jim
