Sir, I have never seen a tilt that would not
lock. Does the Tilt have Spring tension on it? The large tilt spring could be broke or probably the
housing is busted. To replace the spring is easy, to replace the housing, no so easy as the shaft has to be uncoupled from the upper blue shaft cv
joint and removed from the column cause the housing won’t come out over the tilt knuckle
joint. This would be a good time to upgrade the column to
dimmer on the stalk and replace worn shaft and
bearings. Yes you can replace the housing with it in the coach but it is easier on the
bench. The pic
is Ken Burtons that we replaced in the coach in Alabama at a MHI
rally. When replacing the shaft it must go in the correct spline notch to keep the
steering box
centered. I did the inside stuff and Ken did the under hood stuff and we did it in bout a half day only cause Ken knew what to do to
keep it in alignment. I consider it was a world record.. if you git into it and find you don’t want to upgrade and you need a OEM housing or some
other part let me know.
