Would this have anything to do with the deformable part of the steering column - or is that elsewhere? If so, i doubt you could do much to improve it (by welding the tube on) other than ensure there is no slop between the brass pins.If you can picture it, it is a spline at two ends, that are plugged into a steel tube with two brass pins. Now i geuss the pins have come loose and my question is, am i able to tack weld two blobs on either end of the tube? Or should i drill through the tacks and plug weld the tube back to the shafts?
Also, is ther any bushing in the system as this is a problem on Nissan cars (they often replace it with a solid alloy piece to rplace the bush and give 'better' steering feel)
Got similar problems with my steering and im not sure if its the rack of the bushes - hope its the bushes coz i have replacements for them!
