Steering Column Repair: 72 eldorado steering column, cadillac eldorado, tilt column


Question
72 Cadillac eldorado convertable tilt and telescoping steering column. How do I remove the directional and cruise control lever from the column. The sector gear from the ignition lock is spinning and I must remove the housing to repair/replace it.

Answer
Hi Steve:

We have recently uploaded some videos and instructions 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 and photo instructions (for the telescopic portion).  Although the video instructions are for a Chevrolet Truck, the column design is similar to yours.

I hope these 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

Doug
