Tilt Steering Won't Tilt

[rcio7684]

I contacted my service manager, who offered this solution, which worked:

"The steering shaft that comes through the fire wall down to the steering gear is frozen. On that shaft you should see a couple of knuckles. I would bet the knuckles just need some lubrication. Try using a non lithium based lubricant and see if it will work its self free."

If anyone has issues with this, it may be your answer.

Thanks for all the help & suggestions!

Are you talking about 7 in the diagram I posted before?

I did lubricate #7 from the diagram, as well as #'s 14 & 20.

Thank you. I will add these pivot points to the list of places to lubricate while I'm doing my greasing.
