    Does anyone have a diagram of the steering column?

    There is something rattling inside the steering column when the engine hits a certain resonant frequency. It's somewhere just behind the steering wheel in between the turn signal and wiper controls. I just need to see what could be rattling and then maybe stuff some padding in there to stop it.

    On a side note, I miss the old forum.

    Easy to take apart - start by removing the three screws under the column then remove the bezel around the gage cluster and the top of the column come off with it.

    Push in on the sides of the top steering column cover and lift up and it comes right off.

    Not allot under there.

    I've had it apart before when I upholstered the steering wheel but I couldn't see anything that was even remotely loose. So I was hoping for a diagram that would show detail of the inside of that column. Btw, do you guys have the same rattle?

    That's when mine started too. I'm sure it's only because of the extra vibration but I want to find what's vibrating so i can attempt to quiet it!
