steering wheel locking mech

needed to replace the turn signal switch on my 91 caprice. when reassembling i could not seem to get the steering locking mech to engage the way it should. I would like a diagram or photo illustration of the correct position of those parts. if anyone can help with that it would be greatly appricated. thank you.
