Steering Column Repair: box job, box job, stearling


Question
I had a neighber take the stearing column apart on my 84 chevy 3/4 ton custom delux 4wd truck.  He is no longer able to put it back togeter. It is all apart. Its origonal problem was the latch in back of the key that you depress to turn the key off, got jammed and would not depress.  I don't see anything worng, but I have some questions on how it all goes back together.  I can send picuters of the specific parts that I am having trouble with if you can help. Other info:  truck is a four speed stick and colume has only one lever for brights and trun  signal and one peed wipers.
sure would appriciate any help.
