Wanted - 1969 Camaro Steering Column Seal

**Edgemontvillage** · #1 10-09-2020, 07:26 PM

LOCATED - thanks SYC & Paul . Looking for a nice, used original steering column seal (as shown) for my 1969 Camaro project. Mine is brittle and it cracked during removal. Every 69 Camaro came with one of these seals.

243,000 Camaros were built in 1969 and every one left the factory with one of these column seals. Anyone have a good one they can spare? Would appreciate someone stepping up, thanks.

I looked up the part for you. It is called a collar. It is part number 7805550 and be found in Group 6.758.

You might want to advertise or look for one off of a Nova. My parts book only goes up to year 1971, but I am sure a 1972 Nova would be the same.

Just found one I have had forever. It is hard as a rock.

Thanks for having a look. They can petrify over time as mine was brittle and didn't survive the removal process.
