Loose steering column
I am at work so i cannot do a search so i had to have my wife post this.
My car is at the mechanic now. I read 1 time that if the pins are loose you can replace them with larger pins. Can you please tell me where to get the larger pins.
thanks

The pin is not shown on the site. I called Mark a few months ago and discussed with him. Almost ordered one. I flinched at the $55.00 price. A few forums members have installed Mark's pin and from the sound of previous posts the pin appears to work as advertised. I cannot vouch for them personally. I do know that Mark sells one pin to fix this issue. I recommend that you call Mark directly and discuss. Good luck.

The column still has some play in it, and I'm a little leery of putting my weight on the wheel (since that is what wears the thing down in the first place), so a fix with new pins, rather than the other option of replacing the entire column/housing sounded good.
