Questionokay heres the deal i put key in the ignition turn the nuhtn happens,but when i turn the steering wheel the whole steering column turns and somehow it changes gears if u turn it to the right. HELP PLEASE!
AnswerHello Nicholas
Sorry about your truck
It sounds like a tilt column that has become so loose that it finally has come apart inside. when this happens, the linkage no longer connects to what it needs to to start and shut off the truck and the rods get jammed, causing the shifter to hit and move incorrectly.
If all that is true and the column has been getting looser over time, then you need to tear it down and rebuild it.
We have recently uploaded some pdf & video instructions on our company website (for a small fee) to give you first hand viewing of how to remove, disassemble, and reassemble the tilt column you are talking about. They are broken down into step by step detailed instructions. Although the instructions are not for your exact car, the column is very similar to yours.

We have also uploaded exploded views of most columns as well (for free). Yours should be here:

I hope these instructions can help you. Lastly, if you need parts to repair this column simply locate the part and you can purchase it directly through the shopping cart. We stock just about everything you would need to repair your car properly.
Good luck
