The ignition switch is mounted on the lower portino of the column, you might have to remove the 2 bolts holding the coulmn to the dash so it can be lowered a bit to get access to the switch.

Hi,

Boy,,,,i sure do give you credit for attempting this,,,,,,,we as professionals, cringe at the thought of pulling these coulmns apart.

You will have to get the turnsignal switch out of the coulmn so the collar can be removed, there are also 3 or 4 small bolts in the center, under the tilt ball, that have to be removed too.

Hi,

Also there are 2 pivot plugs that have to be removed, here is a diagram, they are pressed in there.

Let me know if you need more help...

YES!

Those are what needs to be removed....they make a special tool that threads into that center hole, then they just pull out, you might be able to rig something up to use to do it instead of the tool, but,,,,be very carefull not to mess up the threads or you will have a heck of a time getting them out.

Good luck!
