74 914. The steering column shaft has typical slop in it. The previous owner installed the metal "crush bushing" but there is still up and down slop in the shaft. The column is attached firmly. What next? Do I need a new steering column bearing that crush bushing slides into? If so what is the part number. Anything else that can cause this? Thanx L

should have postes this first but it shows the gap due to the missing inner plastic sleave, and the retainer clip, you could use the 944 sleave but id just pull the old bearing and put the new one in- its not that bad of a job, took less than an hour- this was the original bearing so i guess it lasted 43 years not too bad
