If your ignition lock does not have 3/16 between the part with the ears and the column boss, be ready.

If you loose access to the accessory position, I know all about what happened. Unfortunately, there is no cure without doing the top of the column tear down thing. Fortunately, once you do that, the rest is simple if you have a very silly little spacer.

On our column, the inner part of what is suppose to keep the cylinder from going in too far failed.

I plan to write all about this in the very near future. (That will be after winter actually starts.) That will be the annotated slide show. (With circles and arrows...)

But, is you are having related problems, I can help now.
