I decided to make these pdf's because the write up is better than the one in the Factory Service Manual. That and the fact that I need it due to my sector slide gear failing on me last night. I had to drop the column just to get the dang thing started. Now knowing that I have to go somewhere I should have pulled the Ignition switch off until it was fixed. Grrrrrr.

Excellent Work, only suggestion is to add a Tear down part to your rebuild part

I am currently having a problem on my 88 Auto column. I have read through this thread but need some clarification. Here's my problem.
When I go to shut the car off - turn the ignition switch, it sometimes will not turn to the point where you can remove the key - like it is jammed. Sometimes it jams completely and I can not turn it in any direction or get the key out. If I wiggle the steering wheel and move the auto shifter back and forth, eventually it will release and I can get the key out. I believe there is a cable from the shifter to the column? if so, is there an adjustment that can be made or is the problem in the column in the ignition lock setup? Thanks in advance.

I had this problem right before it wouldn't start any more. Here's your fix.

While you're in there if you wish you can also tighten up the reverse torx screws. Word to the wise MARK THE SHAFT that the steering wheel goes onto to indicate the UP position. I put mine on up side down after the ball joint popped loose at a 90ยบ bend. So I got to tear down and rebuild the column twice!!![This message has been edited by DIY_Stu (edited 03-24-2009).]
