Ok, it seems that your problem is that the spring that pushes that plastic lined rod out is loose and isn't making contact with the metal plate and the cup, take that little plastic lined peice out, and stick a stiffer spring in and try again...

The very first thing I did on my truck was rebuild the column, it worked pretty well for me, minus one or two things I did wrong... My friend came over one day and wrenched on the column which I had to weld to fix and broke it, so I just bought a new column for 2$ at the wreckers, and traded the best parts from both into one good solid column... If you need more help with how that there plate is suppost to go in, I can make a short video for you to explain it.
