Great video, you have provided a wonderful service to everyone. Just curious, what manual are you referring to? My factory assembly manual does not break down the sub components such as the column. They just list it as a sub component.

Awesome break down but the video was too dark imo. I could not see a single part you worked on that was in the black hole facing the camera. Otherwise known as the top side of steering column . In shadow. Parts falling out where ever they were. Pulling and digging stuff out of that hole…Just so dark. But other than that I just couldn’t see any of the work being performed until you stood it up on the dooor.

Hi, thanks for your video. I have taken my steering column partly apart, but as I'm reassembling and just after I put back the steering lock plate and retainer ring, the telescopic rod is stuck in the bottom position and it won't budge. Maybe it's a stupid question, but how would the lock plate cause the telescopic rod to get stuck? Maybe I'm just not sure how it's supposed to work.

@elh4x4doinstuff49 7 ай бұрын

thanks for the comment Matthias. is it stuck below the plate. maybe try pulling the rod through the plate

@mathiaswallgren6307 7 ай бұрын

Thanks for your reply. Yes, I found it out myself. There is a grove along the shaft until a few cm from the top. When it's all the way down, the grove is not aligned with the lock ring and it ends up pushing against the side of the rod instead and locking it. The rod needs to be raised slightly when putting the lock ring on.

I cannot for the life of me get the axle to slip out of the splined yoke before the 2nd ujoint - like you do at 13:28 . 1993 f150 4x4, Dana 44 (5.0 4EOD). I moved the boot away from the connection, there's about an inch of play in the axle before it abruptly stops, like it's hitting something, but everything's clear. Did you have to overcome some sort of retaining clip inside the splined slip fit? Yanking at basically 100% (great idea, I know...) has gotten me a few more millimeters, but nothing like it's ready to come out. Thanks for the great video.

Hahaha! Been there brother. I actually used to work at Daimler Chrysler ITP4 (Indiana Transmission Plant) in Kokomo In. and I can tell you that the standard Chrysler transmission design leaves a lot to be desired. They've been plagued with recalls and short lifespan issues for many year and you have to keep em as clean as possible to maximize life. They'll serve you better in the long haul. But looks like you did a great job with it.Cheers, man!

I really like this video, it is very informative. I know you are working on a 76 steering column in this video. I have a 75 with tile/telescope wheel. On the steering wheel hub, is there a clip under the retaining nut on a 75? I have been fighting all day trying to get that hub off there with no success. I don't see a clip visually but that hub did not budge even a thousands of an inch. Any help would be useful.

@elh4x4doinstuff49 8 ай бұрын
