We got the 86 Blazer tilt column mocked up. The NRG hub and Quick Release are very tight and look to be well made.


The column has the key location so my dad cut it off with the sawzall and turned it down in the lathe to prep it for boring a 1-1/8 hole to plug it.


The press fit plug worked great! You can't even see it after he final turned it on the lathe.


The black half moon low area is in the casting outside of the plug. It's only a couple thousandths deep so it will disappear when prepped for paint.


I'm waiting on rag joint rebuild parts so we can finish up the column. The "new" ebay Borgeson rag joint I bought has mismatched pins and locknuts. It's obviously been apart before.
