Steering column loose
Discussion
About a year ago, my steering column developed roughly 0.5 cm of play in all directions. With the steering wheel removed, if I grab the steering hub, I can rattle the steering column around in all directions. In looking under the dash, I can clearly see that the steering column is loose, but I can't see what has changed to cause this. Any suggestions?

Are you sure it's not play in the rack itself? I had the same issue and thought it was the column, whereas, it turned out to be some play in the rack itself. Titan refurbished the rack after finding the pinion was worn (at 6-7K miles from new!!)
It appears to be the upper steering column; I could move it around with just my hand. The lower steering column appeared to be fine.I just received an updated set of bushings that I'm hoping to install this weekend.
So now that I've actually received the replacement bushings, I can now see that the inner lining of my old bushing separated, and the bulk of the old bushing is still in the frame hole. Any tips for removing the old bushing, or do I literally just try to use something like a screw driver to push it out?
