Steering Column stuff

[neptunonc at yahoo.com (Neptuno)]

I saw either on ebay or on the vortex a post or ad about this particular issue. I know that there is a repair that can be done to solve this problem.
 
IIRC it inbolves a rather large wacher.

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.
