Slack In Steering Wheel

[gm4me]

I have a 2006 GMC Sierra SLT Crew cab 5.3L.

 

I have about 2 inches of play in my steering wheel.

 

If I put my hand on the upper bolt of the intermediate shaft it feels like the slack is above that point,

 

or in the steering column, because when I turn the steering wheel the bolt does not move.

 

What part needs to be replaced ?

 

Do you have a part number ?

no we dont have a part number ....

 

your question and results makes no sense also..

 

you need to have it checked by a technician ,

 

not you and your buddies thinkin you need a part ok?

 

you know im right,......

I just dont want to pay 90.00 for a GM tech to tell me I need an Intermediate shaft that I can order from GM direct for 55.00.and replace it myself. Sure doesnt make sense in todays economy. I dont know too many people with money to throw away.

You can throw a shaft at it if you want. If you don't want to waste money , have it properly diagnosed. From your's, I'd question that it's the shaft.
