76 steering column
I am attempting to assemble the column after installing a new key switch.
When I compress the lock plate the shaft wants to pull out so I can not get the compressor to move down on the threaded rod putting enough force on the plate.

Actually installing an allen set screw works great for me. It allows the set screw to thread down into the shaft and hold down the pin with tension...and still allows the lock plate suppressor to be threaded on the shaft easily.
