Has any of you fellers ever tore into a flaming river steering column before.
I just picked one up for a good price. But now I know why, It has some internal
issues that need to be looked at. It looks like just a roll pin at the bottom. Holding the bottom plastic bushing in. Then the rest comes out the top. The only thing I'm a little concerned about is the tilt spring and mechanism inside.

:whacked:
If it's built anything like the IDIDIT, your best bet is to return to FR for repairs. How It's Made TV show had a segment on the IDIDIT - couple of special tools are needed to get at the tilt mechanism to disassemble and reassemble.
I missed the original showing, I keep checking the TV listing to try to catch the rerun but so far, haven't had any luck.Quote:

I think it's an Ididit column anyway. So FR wouldn't know how to take it apart
anyway...he he he. Just Kidding boys don't get your pants in a wad.
All the best

WOW I had the service manager of Ididit (Marty) contact me about my column. He
suggested I send it back and let them look at it and check it out. Well in a few short days
I had a brand new column show up in the mail. What a class act this place is. I wanted to
post it here to let you guys know. These guys are the best. What a GREAT company to deal with. If you go with them you won't be sorry.

Sounds like great customer service - when I bought mine, I was impressed the them and their knowledge(the owner sold mine to me at an NSRA car show). My only complaint - they are tough to paint but that isn't their problem:eek::D:DQuote:
