I am rebuilding a 70 (early) steering column and seems to have an issue putting the signal arm back in.
The arm is mounted by 4 screws, as shown in #5, when I install the arm, if the screws are tight, the signal lever will not go up and down freely. I tried everything... what am I doing wrong? I look at the diagram and it seems to be fine. Attached image(s) |

Look at the assembly.
It's two boards with spacers at the screws. If you tighten it down, the corners fold down and pinches the assembly. Think of it this way. When you tighten the screws, there should be a solid un movable connection all the way through.... I can't recall the details but it's a space in the middle with possibly a washer on top. |
