How To Restore A Steering Column

A piece that often gets overlooked during a restoration is the steering column. The column from Detroit Muscle's Charger, for example, was making a hissing noise and started smoking which can be a sign of bad wiring.
To get started, you'll need to disassemble it. Take off the steering wheel, hub, adapter, and cover. Slide out the turn signal assembly and pop out the snap ring before tapping out the shaft. Next, remove the upper and lower bearings.
While it's taken apart you can clean it up and buy any replacement parts you need before reassembly.

Something to seeing your video rebuilding of the upper column where the bearing is that you guys can do a video where you're showing repairing the upper part of the column replacing the bearing that is what I would like to see I'm working on a 1967 Camaro tilt steering wheel column and it's making a lot of gritty noise because of a bad bearing .

That was far from a restoration of that steering column. I wanted to see it completely torn apart then put back together.

you should never tap or bang on the inner shaft. they have collapsing system thzt uses nylon studs that tear apart when banging or tapping the center rod.

That was somewhat over-simplified.
