Author	Topic: Steering column Question
67mike Gearhead Posts: 164 From: Arab,AL Registered: Mar 2001	posted 08-19-2002 10:23 AM While trying to assemble my column, I noticed it is rather "loose" top near the attaching point for the steering wheel. Are 67 fixed wheel column supposed to have a upper and lower bearing? I can only find a upper and lower for tilt wheels. The car was like this when we bought, I think. It's been two yaers since I drove. I can't remember. Thanks mike IP: Logged

It will have play until you install the steering wheel. The base contains the race for the upper bearing. ------------------ All Fords since 1977! IP: Logged

Not sure if they sell them new. Remember seeing an article in MMonthly some years back that tackled that on as 66. Just saw that very thing last week at local Mustang shop. They installed a used one.
