Tilt telescopic column help please 82 C3
I'v looked all over the web for a blow-up of the column, but all have been much less than useable for my needs.
I have taken my column apart to tighten the four bolts 'torx' that keep the column tight. Previously I had the steering wheel floppiness and decided to get the tools and fix it. My delima is how the bearings and races and nylon '? race ?' are oriented ...... from bottom to top, in the order of assembly, or even a blow-up picture of the bearings in whatever orientation, but something I can work with. Does someone have either a blow-up or a picture or schematic of the proper orientation.
As far as dissassembling and putting back together the column to remedy the loose bolts, it's not that hard......... but it has a degree of dificulty. Would I recomend it to anybody? Only a motorhead that had a few years under your belt.... a newb... not really. But the alternative is a rebuilt column, but that in itself has it's dificulty in it's own right. None of this is a piece of cake, either way you go.
So please a pic........ or a link..... or..? .............Thanks Rich
