Any thoughts before I start tearing into her?

Thanks for your help in advance.
Just in case you find your problem is further up the steering column, remember our host carries a great fix for a wobbly steering wheel. It's a self lubricating MSD Nylon steering column bushing. It's easy to install, and unlike the 928 steel sleeve fix, it's easy to remove.
PP P/N PEL-ML-STR.

Also, I might add that we're close to providing the NLS split ring bushing for the early cars. Testing is going on now, Pelican Parts will carry it soon...
