This question is about my Mom's truck. The steering column is loose at the tilt mechanism. It feels exactly the way my camaro did when I had that problem. Externally, the column looks the same as my camaro's. Is it the same internally, and can I fix it the same way? Are there any differences that might make this not doable?

Mac,

There should be no SIR, so it's esentially the same as you 'F' car column on the upper bowl end.

Remove the wheel, lock plate, turn signal switch, lock cylinder, linkages, bearings, and expose the universal joint in the tilt joint. Remove and clean teh four Torx bolts, apply some LocTite 262, adn torque them to 150-180 in/lb. Reassemble and drive off.

You probably have already seen this, but:

Yeah. I have that pic saved on my harddrive Thanks for the confirmation. Knowing how much GM likes to use the same parts in multiple platforms, I figured it would be about the same. I'll get it fixed for her as soon as I get a chance. Thanks.
