Re: Steering column question

I worked in a steering column plant for 7 years. Those 2 pieces are suposed to collapse under impact.They are plastic injected molded into those 2 pieces. The same design is used today. You will need to get a new shaft assembly no doubt about it. That is a safety critical part of the steering column design.
