I have my dash pulled out and want to go ahead and paint the metal frame and steering column as well. But, the steering wheel lock is worn out and needs to be overhauled. What parts will I need and is there a "How To" thread anywhere - I can't find one. Thanks
a chassis service manuel should have that info. if you have access or can buy one they sure are handy. tom
Erik, Thanks for sharing the scans. I'll print them out and read through carefully. I'm guessing there will be parts that I'll need to replace so once I get into it hopefully that will become obvious. OTOH - is there some sort of "rebuild kit" that I can order so I have parts onhand? Thanks
Contact this guy: Columnsgalore.com There's not a massive amount of stuff in there that typically goes awry. Are you tearing the column completely apart or just going in far enough to deal with the key/lock cylinder? Tilt or non-tilt?
Rob, If you need help, let me know. I have an article on our site with color pics showing how to rebuild a tilt steering column. Email me direct if you get stuck GStage1@buickperformance.com http://www.buickperformance.com/tiltsteeringcolumnwobble.htm
