Steering column question
« on: May 26, 2014, 08:04:21 pm »
Got this steering column but the lower shaft part has gone up inside the column.  Can I pull this out or am I screwed?

Got it!! I just kinda figured what's the worst that could happen? I took her to the shop, slapped the column in a bench vice and yanked with all my might! Had to put one foot on the wall and push, almost landed on my face when it popped!

Thank you for the welcome! Will post pics of my 1986 C10 Silverado with a proper introduction when I put her back together.
