How do you remove the lock plate from a 1977 Corvette steering column with tilt and telescopic?

You don't need the $114 Lock Plate compression tool from some of the specialty tool suppliers. The $13 tool from Advance Auto Parts works just fine. Be sure to get the one that says for vehicles without airbags. The main bolt screws into the steering shaft and performs the function of the star screw - locking the telescoping shaft in place.

How do you remove a steering column from 1984 Corvette?
The steering column is energy absorbing and is designed to compress in a front-end collision to minimize the possibility of an injury to the driver of the car. Once the steering column is removed from the car, the column is extremely susceptible to damage. Dropping the column on its end could collapse the steering shaft or loosen the plastic injections which maintain column rigidty. Leaning on the column assembly could cause the jacket to bend or deform. Any of the above could impair the column's collapsible design. Use a standard wheel puller and never hammer on the end of the shaft. # Disconnect the battery # Remove pinch bolt at universal coupling of intermediate shaft # Remove lower steering column attaching bolt on the dash & toe panel support # Remove 2 capsule bolts on instrument panel reinforcement assembly # Disconnect all electrical connectors from steering column # Remove steering column assembly
