My '73 steering column moves in every direction, but last night I noticed that it doesn't seem/feel like the upper bearing. What do I know, though.
If the entire column moves like this (icloud link below), is it necessarily the lower bearing, or could it be something else? Obviously, this is my first time into the column, and man, is this gonna be a learning experience - (indicator switch needed replacement, will replace ignition switch and clean tumbler). https://share.icloud.com/photos/0xOTITlUBsUJtbldsiNxBtOYw |

The front end/steering work can be a slippery slope. The tierods replace ones that have 2 rubber bushings that are usually shot and rustedup fasteners.
