I have an issue with a Ramcharger that my wife bought when I was gone. I can take the steering wheel and physically move it in circles without turning the wheel. I have the steering wheel off and can't figure how to get the rest apart. I have an idea but need some clarification. I have removed the center locking ring and now I am at the cover over the tilt knuckle before the shift lever. Also when you shift gears the whole column turns. It seems to me like there is a bearing at the top of the column that is missing or loose.

Thanks

The best thing you can do is find a good used good used column and replace it. I drove a 84 RC for 15 years and went through 2 columns. It's easier to replace the column than try to dig to far inside of the one you have.

 

I have to agree with BEAR. I have tried to rebuild them before and ended up with a pile of parts to toss in the recycle.
You will be money, time, and stress ahead if you just pull it and replace it with a good used one.
On a side note, you might want to keep your eyes open for a spare, as this is a common problem in dodges of the mid 80's.
I personally swapped mine out with one from a '92 W-250 and it was tight all the way up until I sold it.
