Re: How do you adjust a neutral safety switch

I know that this is an old 'THREAD', but is this switch in the same location on a column 'without' tilt steering?

And, I replaced a bushing that was missing on my column [see picture of missing bushing before and after I made a bushing to go there...sorry the after picture is blurry] because of too much slop in column shifter. Was having to lift shifter up-and-down in Park because of having trouble finding the "sweet spot" for the NSS so truck would start.
The slop is gone now, but sometimes I still have to push up a little on shifter for truck to start.

If it is in same location, it's apparently under the inner fender well on 'my' truck because I don't see it and the steering column goes underneath the driver's side inner fender well.
