Steering Column gap

[Killer Frogs]

I have the stock 73 steering column, was 3 on the tree, with Tom's delux steering wheel https://www.tomsbroncoparts.com/product/deluxe-steering-wheel-66-77-early-ford-bronco-new-wadapter

You can see in the picture the gap in the steering column. This gap keeps the horn from working. I can push the wheel in and it works, but then pops back out. The outer part of the column stays still, but the inside moves with the wheel. Not sure how to fix it. Thanks for any help.

I think u have to choke up on your clamp in the engine bay side on your steering shaft.

Loosen the two bolts under the dash holding the column in as well as the column clamp in the engine bay. This will loosen the column and you can slide the whole thing up to close that gap. Re-tighten the clamp and two bolts under the dash and you should be good to go.

This did the trick, thanks!
