can you swap the key tumbler assembly easily?
i had a junk yard steering colum that ive partially broken down. what i need to replace is the shell that holds the bushing in place for steering shaft as it comes out from the colum, which means im replacing the whole damned colum, but i dont want two different keys, one for the doors, one for the ignition, AND the junk yard key tumbler is jacked. some sort of retaining pin is shearing and allows the key to spin a 360 if you jiggle it right. im wondering if its possible to swap that whole cast peice that houses the key tumbler, or the tumble itself.
