Tilt column help

Can someone tell me where this spring goes in a tilt column.. The turn signal broke and when I torn it apart the spring was just lying there...

Well there's the problem right there, the whole damn thing is junk! Just take it out of your Blazer and throw it in the back of my truck, I'll dispose of it for you! Sorry, can't help with the spring thing! Cya buddy!

That is a cancelling spring. There should be two of them, (a left and a right).

The springs are what the cancelling cam hits to make the turn signal recenter. They are the same for tilt and non tilt. They fit into the cancelling plate, (the part that the turn signal arm mounts to).

If you run into a problem, I can take a pic and post it.

If you do need an extra spring and you can't get one let me know. I can get them for a couple of bucks here (new) and can throw them in a 37 cent envelope to you.

they cost 12 cents at the dealership. You need to know which one to get, left or right.
