Answer
Hi Bob:
It sounds like the lock cylinder is not allowing you to turn the key far enough to start the truck.  You will need to replace the lock cylinder & keys.
We have recently uploaded some videos on our website to give you first hand viewing of how to remove, disassemble, and reassemble the parts you are talking about. They are broken down into step by step 2-3 minute detailed videos with instructions. Although the video is for a Chevrolet truck, the column is very similar to yours.
