Installed my new steering column, and tested my alternator turned out to be fine. If anyone is thinking about replacing their steering column. Its not really hard pretty much all plug and play just remember to plug the plugs in right they only go in one way so it shouldn't be hard. If you can take the bolts from the replacement column. Always good to have spares. If I can do it anyone can. Look around though one Junkyard wanted 100, and the local pull and save only charged 22. You can save even more money by swapping the ignition tumblers and use your old one if it isn't broke, and your replacement doesn't have keys.
My first attempt to fix my column lets just say didn't work so well... No more high beams and it still slopped all around bad, so it is far easier to just replace the whole thing than tear into it.
Here it is after I just put the new one in. Sorry no pictures with it completely out.
All done and put together.
