So, I dropped the steering column and a few other parts off at a sandblaster and they lost some of the parts.  They blamed it on a new guy mixing up customer's parts.  Total suck!  Anywhoo...  I need to get replacement parts.  I need help identifying a couple parts and if anyone can provide a source, I'd greatly appreciate it!  I need the nut for the top of the steering shaft along with these two pieces...

As always, appreciate your help!!

Hi Sean,
I just canabilized a steering column for some parts I needed. I have the smalls that you need. Shoot me a private message with your address and I will send them to you as a freebie. They will just get lost in my misc part bin  :bigsmile:

Sean,
It is great to see when members step in to help. I see it all the time on here. Great members for sure.

And just to provide a little info of what they are.
I just rebuilt my steering column a few months ago.
The round ring is the retainer plate for the signal/flasher assembly.
The other plate is what keeps your steering wheel lock lever/spring in place.
I love seeing a good ending.  :2thumbs:

Tom, Thanks again for the parts!  Got the steering column all put back together (except the steering wheel).

Cheers!
