PARTS for GM 1990 truck column

[Crosley.In.AZ]

I have a non-shift,  tilt column out of a 1990 chevy truck (as I recall).

needs typical pot metal parts replaced in the top of the unit to repair it.  i got a price of 175 - 200 dollars from local place.  Kinda surprised by the price.

Any online places sell parts or part kits? A google search turned up some places where part prices seemed very silly high  too.

Are these broken  columns now expensive to repair?

there was a company near you called...  Nusource...  or nuparts.com

they had every steering column part...  in stock... the went bellyup... just a few months ago... think there were in tempe...

try the parts list web site i posted...    compnine.com

they will show all the individual parts and a gm diagram..

with that you can google the part numbers..

many steering column parts are OEM made by strattec...  and thats what they had in stock at nuparts...  warehouse full    went at auction..   probably ended up as scrap someplace...   as buyers would see the zinc content only.. not the actual value of the parts...

see photos

small peice broke off , is part that hooks to the half moon shaped part in column the key moves.

I can not get the key to rotate fully, need to pull the clolumn down fully. I hate to do that with out new  parts around, yet I may need more parts than i know unless I tear the clolumn down
