I love it. Aside from color combo, I love those wheel covers & front vent windows. Wish I had those on mine-almost bought those wheel covers but decided to keep mine original to the year offered. At the time, I was interested in the color & couldn’t find any 78s for sale like that. There was a 2...
I have a feeling you just nailed it. I think that’s where my problem lies. May require some disassembly, lol. I’ll try to post some pics when I get to that. May focus on other pressing issues for the time being. I have multiple projects going as we speak. Many thanks again Ross.
If I was brave (not), I’d disassemble the column on my 4 door which works fine but I don’t want to end up with another broken assembly. It’s obvious the column in the 2 door was disassembled at some point, so no telling if parts are either missing or installed incorrectly. I’ll keep at it.
I’m also curious what purpose that lock serves (top right) and whether it’s related to the telescopic function. Something there has to “lock” the shaft from sliding in & out (stating the obvious).
Great info Ross. Unless I’m losing my eyesight, I previously removed the lock lever, lock screw and wheel nut and shined a light into the shaft. I can see what looks like the end of that rod, but it doesn’t seem to have any play - maybe that’s not a bad thing. The rod & shaft all slide in & out...
Hi Ross-thanks for the feedback. I previously tried your first option with no luck. However, your 2nd option-seems more likely. When I bought the car, I was told it had been a project car from a vocational school. From what I noticed immediately, the steering column had been installed...
Hi all. I hope I’ve posted this in the correct Forum. Am looking for for some insight from the experts here. I have a 1976 New Yorker w/the tilt/telescope option. Tilt works fine. However, I’ve been unable to get the telescope function to lock in any position. Was wondering if anyone else has...
Hi all. Am looking for a power steering shaft pot coupling assembly for a 1976 New Yorker. Can anyone point me in the right direction. I have the steering gear box but need to replace the pot coupling assembly. Not sure if anyone makes new replacement parts or if I should continue to search the...
