silver71mc Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Hi I have a 71 Monte Carlo, I replaced the non tilt column with a OE tilt column. I purchased a 3 spoke wheel kit ( OPGI pn 97CH70 ). It came with everything I needed, except for a horn contact spring and pin kit. I don't think I can use the OE spring and wire horn contact setup, doesn't seem to be a way to plug the wire connection into the horn button. Looks like I need to use the spring, pin and locking sleeve set up. The confusing part for me is, the tube on the tilt column horn cam does not have the locking groove cut into it, the groove and the locking sleeve that fits onto the pin is what holds it all in place. If anyone has info on the correct horn contact setup for a tilt column with a 3 spoke wheel, I would certainly appreciate hearing from you. Thanks, Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealRed70 Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Your column has a canceling cam on it for a 69/70. Could be a 69 or 70 tilt. For 69 and 70 The tubes on the canceling cams did not have the notches like your 71 would have. In 70 they used what what called a compression or friction fit insulator. it was just held it in place, no notches. The best way to fix this is just purchase a canceling cam for a 71 with the notches in it. Wala fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
