Metallic-Sounding Drag In Tilt Steering Column When Turning Wheel - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Thanks, James. I just went out and checked this along with horn switch. I removed the turn signal switch and the column sleeve covering the bearing so no interference. I have definitely narrowed it down to the bearing itself. Now if I could just figure out how to get those two pins out to remove the bearing assembly.

One board member mentioned using a socket and screw, but I haven't figured out how to execute that successfully. And someone else mentioned a special tool (something like a slide hammer), but I haven't found that tool yet either. Just not sure what to search for.
