Column Mods?

[davepl]

I did see that article but I got worried when they modify the part where the intermediate shaft telescopes. I presume that to be part of the collapsibility (to make up a word) of the column, though you'd have to break both roll pins with your chest if that's the case.

My '69 Pontiac (really Impala) uses ball bearings in the collapsing section. I guess if I knew where the safety features of this column were I'd feel better changing it.

Of course for all I know those safety features that came in the 65-67 timeframe didn't apply to trucks...
