    Quick ? On installing steering wheel..?

    Has anyone adjusted their column up or down? I see some posts of people doing this but different vehicles.

    Quick ? On installing steering wheel..?

    Well no luck..here's the steering connections under hood..the thing is when I tore into the column there wasn't a snap ring or cancel cam or dust cover..so the steering wheel was completely flush with the column. I guess I'll just live with the gap.

    I think when I lowered the column it caused the column or shaft to move, https://www.chevytalk.org/fusionbb/showtopic.php?tid/300933/Similar to this thread towards the bottom. I believe I need to slide the column towards the steering wheel...will report back

    I removed the 2 nuts that hold the column bracket to the dash and "lowered" the column. Squareroot - will check that coupler out, read in another thread someone suggested that. Just seems like the wheel needs to go another .25 or on the splines. Thanks for quick responses/ideas

    Quick ? On installing steering wheel..?

    When I initially took it apart there was no snap ring or cancel cam..the steering gap was normal. Since I've replaced those parts now gives me the large gap. With steering wheel off I can move the steering shaft in and out about a .25in.

    Yes...I'm wondering if something happened to the column, I dropped the column in order to get the turn signal switch wiring out.

    I think as Bucket stated I'm missing the plastic "dust cover" so maybe that's why it looks like a large gap. This truck has all kind of mysteries/missing parts

    Is the green stem for the horn spring supposed to protrude through the steering wheel hole? Looks like it's keeping the wheel from sliding back more.

    Tried tightening it with no luck, it tightens just doesnt move the wheel any. When I took it apart the column splines were flush with the wheel. Now there maybe a 1/4 way down. Might take it back apart I don't know?
