Is the steering column collar supposed to be free to rotate on console/floor shift cars?

Ghoste

It hasn't on any of the ones I've owned.

440

What stops or fixes it in place so it won't rotate?

Charger-Bodie

Ive never seen one that isnt able to rotate. They just usually dont get turned it doesnt affect anything if they are turned.

Hmm, the 67 has to be different then because I just tried it on that car and it is definitely fixed in place.  I'm going to have to look at the 2nd gen on Monday.  I believe you, its just that I have never ever noticed they turn before.  Mind you I've never tried to turn them iether but if its lose you would think I owuld notice at some point. :lol:

I thought it was a bit strange but if that's how it's meant to be.
