Steering column feels loose?

K. Roman · K. Roman's Garage

I noticed today while driving the 911SC (check the sig line) that my steering column has play in it.
I could lift the wheel up about a quarter of an inch. And I don't recall that ever happening.
So, as I drove I kept noticing how loose it felt and I started worrying that som'n might be wrong.
I've not checked into it because I don't know where to start from and would like to know if this is either normal and I've just never noticed or it's a problem and has happened to other people on the BBS and can be fixed with a few beers.

TIA,

Mike's right...buy a bushing repair kit from our host and install it. It's $13.50, and easy to install. Here's a tech article on the installation. It's a "one beer" project, at most. Good luck!

Thanks, will see if that works.

I had this just happen to mine a few weeks ago, it didn't take a while to get that way, it was just all the way bad one day.

The repair bushing fixed it right up and real easy.

Cool, thanks again Scott and Mike for "steering" me in the right direction!
