Default Rattle in Steering Column

I've got a rattle in the passenger compartment that I'm pretty sure must be a coupler or joint in my steering column. Has any one had this problem or taken one out and can tell my how difficult i'm sure it willl be.

Thanks,
CTJ

When does the rattle happen? Maybe take off the lower part of the dash and see if anything falls out.

Can you put your year and model in your signature? That'll help alot.

Try tightening the yoke that supports the column. You can access it by removing the hush panel.

I'm sure it'* in the steering somewhere bacause I can feel it from the wheel. I'll try tightening the yoke and see what it does.
thanks,
