Title: 68 steering column restoration parts**PIC**
Post by: runningman on July 10, 2010, 03:55:36 PM
Looking for the plastic tube supports that snap to the outside of the column and the o-ring that goes between the brackets.  Anyone know if they are being reproduced??  Also looking for the wiring harness connector if anyone has an extra... Thanks

Looking for the small white plastic clips, i guess they help support the tube inside of the column.  I'll get a pic of it today and post.

Those are the clips that go on the bracket I believe, not the ones I was looking for but could use those as well.  My internet was down this week, I'll post a pic of the other clips tomorrow.  Do you carry those ones in the pic?  Thanks

Matt do you mean the bushing/bearing on the bottom of the column tube in the motor bay?  :scratchchin:

Matt,
I'm not familiar with any  other kind of clip in a 1968 column. There is a white lower bearing support on the bottom and the only other serviceable parts up top is the upper bearing thats about 1" od

Yes, I have the lower support/ bearing @ $85 and the 3 clips shown above @ $15 set

That seal I believe it is the steering column firewall seal here is a link to a Ebay sale for a non ac firewall set.. Looks like you might have to buy the whole kit. No luck on the other item you need..

Strange, I see these on the drawings that have been posted on here before.  I will see if I can find the drawings and repost.
