Steering Column stuff

[dswalterwi at gmail.com (Don Walter)]

Mine fell out too after traveling the SH#% roads in Chicago (sorry Tonee).
 I pushed it back up in there along with the plastic thingy that is supposed 
to keep it there and then put a cable tie (TyWrap) tightly around the metal 
collar to hold it in place. It has been working since getting back from 
Cincy 2005. I would like to find how to fix it right.
