I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the ignition tumbler out of the steering column of my 75. I have looked online and the one site i found showed a hole to push in the clip to release it but mine does not have that hole, can someone help as i have it down to just the housing at this point.

The pictures are indicating the following:
first - the metal plate that covers the hole second - orientation of spring clip on ignition lock as it relates to the access hole; as you can see the apex of the spring clip lines up with the hole when fully seated in steering lock third - metal plate removed on a factory pre-drilled hole fourth - hole manually drilled on a steering lock that was not present originally fifth - you can see the apex of the spring clip lines up with the hole once it is fully seated in steering lock sixth - you need to drill the hole about 12-13 mm from the very edge of the steering lock housing so that the hole is centered over the spring clip---don't go too deep or you will drill through the spring clip Attached thumbnail(s) |
