Tilt steering column 65 riviera

[arnulfo de l.a.]

I  am having trouble moving mine to its lowest position. Will go all the way up and back down to mid point only. Just started doing it out of the blue. Anyone got any experience dealing with this issue? I would like to fix  it if I can with as minimal amount of disassembly as possible. Looks like I may need some specialty pullers if I need to get to the tilt assembly. What am I in for ? Many thanks

Hello friend. Long time no speak.

 

I don’t know what your in for. Sorry. I can’t help.

 

As for pullers, U will need one to get the steering wheel off. I bought mine at HF. It did the job. That’s no specialty tool tho. Our manual shows a slide hammer like puller that is needed once u get the steering wheel off. That seems like a specialty tool.

 

I needed to get in my column to fix my turn signal cancelation pin & decided not to once I saw that “specialty tool”. Too trick for my blood haha

 

Lemme know if u need any help

Thanks David. I got the puller for the steering wheel. But after looking at the manual , I think I am going to take the car to a column specialist that I know of in east l.a . Hope he is still there. How is your car coming along?

Good idea on having a pro look at your column. The manual discouraged me too 

 

My car is good. Thx for asking. I’ve been focused on driving the snot out of my car. 6k miles on her now haha
