good bye sticky square body steering whee in the K1500 Burbl!!
it was actually still oozing in my hands when I pulled it out..
I figured I'd try one of the new repops from classic and it look, feels, and functions great!
whole job only took 2.5 beers :p
I have random puller parts n pieces but I went ahead and bought a new kit and turns out they sent a gearwrench brand that's very hardy
the horn button came with a broken tab but the nice folks there are going to send me a new one gratis
I have one thing to share that having owned a couple of square bodies and 67-72 as well as pulling a few columns and wheels, I did not have committed to memory that the white plastic spacer in the base of the wheel pocket is for the square body and not needed in the 67-72.. I struggled with that for a minute as the old wheel had one and the repop kits I bought also had one as they cover a wide model year range.. the spacer in 67-72 binds the wavy spring and no clicky-clicky.. anyways, figured it out and the horn.... blows!
