well.. we had to replace the column, cause it "collapsed" so we have a new collum... and we take out the old.... all is well.. go to stick the new one in.. and its a PITA ....

It wouldnt set right... LOTS of play...ect..ec.t...ec.t... well... now the shaft going through the steering box is is loose.. so the bottom hangs when bolted up.. and we still cant get it set right.. PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!

Do you have a spare one Mar?

Actually, if you had taken some pics, there would've been a greater response from the peanut gallery, I'm sure... Just chill, brah, Friday ain't that far away...
