I assumed that I would have to order the switch, but my local Auto Zone had one in stock. <br /><br />I picked up the switch and got everything disassembled and cleaned up fairly quickly. It took a while to get the switch positioned properly and to get the wiring run properly through the steering column, but those were the biggest hassles. Up to that point.<br /><br />When I was ready to reinstall the steering wheel, I noticed that the threads on the column were totally wrecked. I don't know if I trashed them with the wheel puller, or as I was removing the retaining nut. Either way, there is no repairing them, now. <br /><br />So in the end, I replaced the turn signal switch. but now I can't install the steering wheel until I swap out the steering shaft.<br /><br />Have I ever told you how much I love working on 40 year old metal?Mikehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17303322210306149617noreply@blogger.com
