Default Re: 1932 steering colun drop

Thanks to Murphys law, I drilled and started to tap it (for a slide hammer) Oh yea
tap broke in there no way thats comming out. What I had to do is drill a series
of holes around the tap so it falls out. Although looks like a mess, I then used a
endmill on drill, so now I have a round (bigger hole) then turned a pin Od. size of hole and
Id. same as old pin that goes in lock cylinder. I prefer Aluminum or brass for a pin
for the next time. The modern crook has no clue how these work even if the crook
pops the cylinder. (unless the crook owns one)
