This is the steering column in my Contemporary. It has play and movement in the up and down direction. There's no tortional play in the rotational direction just a definite thumping movement when you lift the wheel up and down. It's not terrible, but I know that when I start driving this thing one day it's going to drive me nuts. Are there adjustments inside that I can make, or bearings that can be replaced? Anyone know how I fix this, and where I can get parts for it? If not, is this column or something else that would work still available? Any and all info and ideas are appreciated.
By the way, I know the underdash area in the second photo is a mess. The wires are all over the place. I'm going to rewire the whole instrument panel - or at least neaten it up considerably. That'll be all straightened out before I hit the road. What a mess - I have lots of work ahead of me! Thanks, guys.
