55 Chevy steering column disassembly

Disassembly of the 55 Chevy column to install the new column bushing, horn kit, turn signal canceling cam, turn signal pawl kit and turn signal wiring harness from Danchuk. Also we convert this column from a column shift to a floor shift column.

Thanks much for this video. Re-wiring my ‘56 210 and this is a huge help. 👍✌️

[@DoubleRRestorations]

Glad to hear. Thank you

[@elijah2078]

This is a great tutorial! I would not attempt my column restoration without studying your work first! Thanks a lot!!!

[@DoubleRRestorations]

Glad it helped!

[@paulpatriot1776]

You sir are a blessing! Thank you so much for this video! I’m trying to restore the horn button to its original location on my 56” Townsman, and this has helped so much. May God bless you and thank you again!!!!👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

It's amazing how simple they made stuff back in the day. Good job!

[@DoubleRRestorations]

It sure is. I was worried about the column. I had a bad experience with the 72 Camaro tilt column, bought another one for parts, turned out to be junk, and sent it out to be rebuilt to a pro and he ended up having to get a donor for other parts needed. lol

[@farmboysgarage7595]

Sounds like stuff that would happen to me ;)

[@johnkelly6942]

It’s not the natural flow of things but i caught your video putting all this back together and now I get to see how it comes apart. I’m sure when I swap columns on my ‘55 the one going in the car will need rebuilt top to bottom. Good job, nice video (nice car, too!)

[@MidwestMotoRider]

Loosing footage happens to everyone eventually I think. You explained it really well so I don't believe anyone will be missing anything by not seeing it. While I would love to work on that 55 I would be so tense afraid of scratching it or who knows what.

[@DoubleRRestorations]

Yes indeed. I was very afraid of scratching this car. lol

[@benzcrazy]

Now ill be able to attempt it , Thanks for all your great expertise and advice

[@DoubleRRestorations]

Thanks and thanks for watching.

[@txsviking]

Any idea how to install brake pedal return spring. Great video on how to replace upper bearing and horn kit installation

[@DoubleRRestorations]

Thanks Ed. I haven't installed one. I mainly work on 70-81 Camaros. I took this 55 in as a side project for the wiring, helping out a good friend of mine.

[@louiecarpio4087]

Can u show repair of column shifter 3 speed 3/1/24

[@DoubleRRestorations]

I just had this one car in helping a friend out. I normally work on 2nd gen Camaros.

[@benzcrazy]

Still a great help , thanks !!!!!!

[@DoubleRRestorations]

Thank you. I appreciate the feedback.

[@ceedell]

Columns are lots of fun! lol

[@DoubleRRestorations]

Yes they are! ;)

[@samsgarage2856]

I can see how forgetting to tie the string on could cause a bad day. I see you tied it to itself just in case.

[@DoubleRRestorations]

Yes, All I need was my daughter coming in and saying whats this for while pulling the string. lol

[@id4ty]

im working n a 54 , similar , how does one get the steering column out of the steering box?

[@DoubleRRestorations]

+id4ty I have never worked on a 54, so I'm not sure. Wish I could help.

[@OLDTIME47]

any footage on taking off old column tube from outside firewall and under dash?

[@DoubleRRestorations]

I didn't have to go into it that deep, just mainly inside the car at the wheel.

[@Tightwad64]

This has been a great video really helped me out I do appreciate your time

[@DoubleRRestorations]

Glad to hear the video helped.
