Stood out in the weather, steering tube fills up and whol thing rusts solid.

Filling with oil is worth a try, as is backing-off the adjustment, but for such a common column just throw it on the parts pile and fit another. VPW and other dealers had NOS half ton columns - might have 3/4 ton too.

The big drawback with the internal rack and pinion stuff is that it wears out in the straight ahead position - then when you do a by-the-book adjustment at straight ahead it is way too tight at the ends of the travel.
