Re: Steering column inner shaft problem

I know a guy who had one like that snap in two. He was cranking the wheel quickly to grab a parking space and "pop" the wheel went round n' round. Thankfully he was lucky. I'm no metalurgist but I'd say finding a replacement seems the safest bet. The column in my avatar truck was doing the same and another truck buddy I have was losing his too. We all got replacements in the local PickNPull junkyard. If anybody out there is wondering about their's....check it out. It could save your life!

If you can't find a replacement shaft in your neck of the woods, PM me. I have a spare that's in good shape.
