Is the piece to spray in the engine Bay, is it inside the driver's side cabin, is it under the steering column in the cabin,,,,WHERE do you find the piece to spray??????????????? :confused: :cheers:

I tried to find these bushings. Finally gave up. Sniveled. Hopeless for me without something specific with clear pictures.

The steering shaft is under the hood on the drivers side. Have someone sit inside and turn the steering wheel and you will see the shaft turning. There are 2 bearings, one up towards the firewall and the other down by the steering box. You need a flashlight to see them clearly. Spray the lithium grease between the shaft and the white nylon bearing.

https://www.corvetteforum.com/techti...s/Steerin2.jpg is the other pic you're looking for. Looks like whoever wrote up the procedure fat fingered the pic location. Not sure if it will help you any though..

The link works but the second picture seems to be broken on this Mac. The first picture show a can spraying somehting. It was hard to tell what was being sprayed from where. Maybe the second (broken) picture clarifies the location of what to spray?
