Re: Big Day, Much Help Needed, 1989 Steering Column Job
i put the wheel back on and used the wheel puller and took the wheel off the right way. then there was a bolt poking out and a plastic cover around it. i got the plastic cover off to reveal a half rust-covered metal sprocket.
hope shone through however as i located the screw that must bow down to me in order for the busted cylinder to come out. its slightly out of reach but if i get some allen wrench style torxes then i can have my way with that screw. another break this time sponsored by Three Brother's Sicilian Ham & Pepperoni Pizza in association with Canada Dry Ginger Ale. Special Thanks go to Cody 2 doors down for buying 3 slices and eating 1.

No Autozone where you are? They rent steering wheel pullers around here, could've saved yourself $16.
