Hey Cody, Great Video. I have a 71 Cuda but there is no lock-out tube or Allen lock ( part 4 -  5:23). Am I missing something? Thanks, Ed

Hello @Barracudaeddie1971    Welcome to the forum.

The 1971 steering columns are different than the 1970 columns.  The 71's have the lockout built in to the collar of the column.

Thanks for the answer Cody. Since everything else on the steering column was exactly the same as your video, I thought maybe I was missing something. Thanks again.

Just a few notes, the steering wheel puller in the video is now available as a Sunex 3900.  I bought one through Amazon.  You can use the same puller in place of the Miller C-4044 collar removal tool with some 8-32 all-thread (Lowes sells 6" lengths in their "drawer" section).  Big thanks to Cody for the video.
