[Tigers] Rebuilding Racks and Steering column

[BEAU2EVE at aol.com]

Well it's that time of the year, fix what your tiger needs. So on that note 
 I decide to start early. Please send me your opinions, since I'm told that 
the  rack's gears are not available what can be done? And who does it for a 
 resonnable cost. And #2, my steering column can't be locked in place. If I 
 tighten the center nut it won't stop the column from going up and down at  
will with only a slight drag. I'm also looking for the correct adapter for 
my  Lecarra steering wheel.
Also is the steering column from the Tiger the same as the Alpine's unit  ? 
     Thanks in advance    Beau  B9470951
