After a few days fussing around with a junkyard tilt, an old spare column in need of complete rebuild, and a fair amount of scratching my head, I finally pieced together one complete, solid tilt assembly.

Mechanically, I was able to clean, paint and rebuild all of the parts needed, but I also put in a new ignition lock cylinder and all of the electrical components (turn signal assembly, cancel cam, ignition switch and neutral safety switch).

Been a long time coming, but since I had such fun recently with the adjustable pedals and was already under the dash, the time seemed right to tackle the tilt rebuild & install. Another extremely useful addition for Bonne's regular driving duties.

Also, my factory air cleaner assembly came back from powder coat last week too. I freshened up or replaced all of the misc pieces, then after install, I was reminded how once you make one piece look nice, everything else needs attention. Heh.

More projects and refinements to come.
