Key stuck in ignition barrel

With the wheel still on? Surely you gotta at least get that, the lock ring, and turn signal cam and stuff outta the way.

I got denied MD inspection on mine when I lived there, you need like 6 inch long torx bit, but you can get in there with wheel on fishing through the horn button hole, just have to get an open section above the torx to get in there, and move the wheel around to the next. it's a bit fiddly, "by feel" but can be done. The tech that inspected it told be that's all that had to be done after i said something about dismantling everything. Maryland inspection are no joke. They check alot of stuff you wouldn't ordinally think for a safety. He inspected all my stuff after that. Tilt mechanism is on their list.

When you do tighten the tilt mechanism, STOP pulling yourself in to the front seat by grabbing the wheel and yanking your ass up in there.

Main cause....... Dude I got my truck from was 350lb'er... not that he boosted himself in, more likely he hung on the wheel to center his arse. For 4x4 it originally sat close to 2wd height.

No sweating here. Just not used to being called dude, especially in my "Older" crowd. As old as I am and at my American Legion, typically "sir" or a few other 4 letter words are bandied about. DUDE is for "Hipsters", not for crusties like me. I had a step son that called me dude sometimes and to tell you the truth, that little shythead was worthless as a screen door in a submarine.

As an Airman I deliberately used the term "dude" around my sergeants as much as I could. Now nobody cares.
