Flaming River or Ididit???

[Matt@BOS]

For me the one of the deciding factors is the location of the key in the column, (if you want a column with a key). Ididit has that weird location that is angled... google the two, it's too hard to explain.

I agree with Matt the Ididit has a bunk key location. I have one in my car and the thing that bugs me the most is the movement of the wheel after the tilt is position.

I seem to recall Widowmaker had a collaspable one. I googled it and looks like they have one

My Ididit has been known to pop out of position unless it's in the bottom two positions. I called them and they will repair it at no cost. I just need to send it back. I just haven't been motivated to tear the steering column out of my car and shlep it to Minnesota or where ever.

If your just looking for a tilt wheel check out this guy on pro-touring or his web site gmtilt.com

I think they are now making a column with the normal GM key location.

this used to be my biggest complaint about ididit .... however they finally wised up and fixed the problem , now the key is in the factory location
Flaming River doesnt even include the correct pigtail to install , you need to buy extra parts just to make it work

Anyone had excess lash with a Flaming River tilt Column?

Define excess, or excessive? The one in my car has a little. Seemed about the same as an Ididit.

Yeap. The tilt just seems sloppy up and down.

Any excessive lash in the upper steering shaft when turning the steering wheel left & right? By excessive I mean enough to be noticed as above normal, - more than a stock GM tilt column? I drove one car that that had enough to bug me if it were mine.
