I had read about the cure-all bushing to fix the steering column play. I ordered myself one and once I began digging into it and watching some youtube videos, it seems the bushing is for later cars and doesn't work in the early cars. Does repairing this play in an early car require total disassembly? Thanks for any guidance.

Yes, there is a corrugated version of this that works for early cars. I haven't seen one of those in years though. Maybe a 911 part? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |
