1971 ssp steering colum
does anyone know if there is a place to get parts for a tilt wheel column in a 1971 ssp?

Took it apart to tighten and locktite the 4 loose bolts in the knuckle that were really loose..

There is a plastic gear track in there that travels up and down when you turn the key switch to start the car
and the very last gear tooth on the track is missing so we need a new gear track ..any info of were to find one ? Or if they will work out of a standard colum ? Thanks guys

Seems to be hard to find parts for those beings that they are pretty rare. The standard column has a totally different ing. switch setup and doesn't have that part your needing. I don't know if any of the late 70's columns wil interchange.
