1985 f350 tilt steering wheel/ignition lock help needed
 
The ignition lock won't turn. Could be the actuator rod. I have broken down the steering wheel, removed the directional signal assembly and see a snap ring around the steering wheel axle and three Philips screws in the cavity.

Can't find the hole you put a drill bit in to release the key tumbler assembly.

Have the Ford blowup diagram of the entire steering column assembly from my local dealer.

A friend tried to describe how to replace the actuator rod but a verbal description of the procedure is impossible to comprehend.

Don't want to disassemble any farther due to fear lots of springs and pins will fall out before I can see where they belong.

It is a TILT STEERING WHEEL

Any step by step instructions will be appreciated.

Some progress made after a friend helped.
Now all i have to do is clean up the various
parts and gears and put it together.
