Hi Guys my Auto 1979 cj 7 steering column is loose and moves left to right.I think there are 4 bolts in the bottom of the column from memory last time this happen I welded up a crack in the plate they screw into I think.So I am going to strip it down and have a look.Does any one have a old steering auto column they want to sell or know of a source of parts that I could try.I use this jeep daily so ideally swapping a replacement in would be good till i can get it sorted
thanks
Thanks for the interest guys. Got the column out and the problem is a cracked end on the tube that hold the fitting that the four screws go into.So will need to find another Column.Checked all the jeep Parts without any luck.USA 4X4 may have one so will check it out next week. maybe have to bring one in
