Getting the Wheeling Fever

Let's see I was switching out the steering columns (not sure on the spelling) because the key wants to fall out of the diesel one, I would have switched the ignition switches out, but there is no way to remove the bolts..
Anyway back to the problem, I removed the steering column and I cant get the other one to go down the steering shaft, I can't figure out how to get it to go down all the way.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to get it to go.
Any help would be great.
Thanks,

Sometimes it takes more than a single day for a question to get answeredà
First it has to be seen by someone that actually knows the answer û or at least has a good idea of how to help.

I clicked on this thread today intending to do exactly that.

Ditto to what Smiley already said.

And to add a little more ... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" />

There are certain times during the year where responses are going to be delayed. Anytime around holidays is going to be one. Others are going to the annual ZuZoo event in Moab in May, Uhwarrie (sp?), Crawloween, etc.

Ya just gotta be patient around here sometimes. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Actually, it was pretty easy to figure out...
I had thought of something it might be but I was wrong, and found out that the steering wheel lock was what was keeping it from going all the way, so no big deal <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />...
Thanks anyway <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" />

I probably could have read the manual, but I didn't even think of it <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />...
