[QUOTE="brittas, post: 622059, member: 18735"] That's a bit worrying if the steering lock is trying to engage on these vehicles ,my original shaft and the replacement that I received for the damaged one were in good condition , no damage to the slot .The barrel/steering lock is the type with one grub screw retaining it (1970) ,I had the lock barrel on the bench and the lock bolt retracted when I put the key in every time . Also when I take the key out of the barrel a distinct click can be heard as the spring loaded lock bolt contacts the steering shaft , only locating with the slot in the shaft when the wheel is turned .I know they changed these locks in the change over period and the I think the late bays are more like modern steering locks . Just trying to get to bottom of this puzzle , Brittas [/QUOTE]
