Steering Column Repair: ignition lock cylinder, tilt column, chevrolet truck


Question
I have a '94 chey c1500 silverado with tilt sterring. My concern/problem is that I dont need a key to start it or anything. I was wondering if it is just the ignition lock needs to be replaced or if there is something else that I need to look at? If it is the lock how would I go about changing it?

Answer
Hi Thanatos
Sorry about your truck.  You are correct though, all you need is a lock cylinder
We have recently uploaded some videos on our company website 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 2-3 minute detailed videos with instructions. Although the videos are for a Chevrolet truck, the column is very similar to yours.

I hope these videos help you.  If not, please contact me again for more information.
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
