Locking pawl catch pin for your 67-69 Lincoln - Mercury - Ford tilt steering columns. This is an improved reproduction with cir-clips to prevent movement, avoiding damage to you locking pawl. These shafts are notorious for working their way out of place with normal use. Once the pin works its way out the locking pawl will not be aligned with the teeth and the cast part will break under pressure. Upgrading to these parts can avoid several hundred dollars in damage. These precision parts are made from drill bit blanks and will never fail. Lifetime warranty, 2 required per car, both included in this set.
