Anyway to disconnect the locking steering wheel mechanism on a 75 ??
When parked and the wheels are turned just a bit its a bitch to get it unlocked. |

Yes, but it will require you remove the ignition switch and cut out the locking tab....not terribly difficult, just time consuming

Sometimes you have to jiggle the steering wheel a little to let the lock release.

Maybe next year. |
