I didn't see a whole lot on this in the archives, so I thought I'd just post how to tighten up the steering column. Mine would collapse in when braking hard, etc.
Extend the steering column all the way out, remove the four screws holding the cover in place under the steering wheel. Then look up at the tightening mechanism. You should see a large 13mm bolts that runs perpendicular to the steering column. I used a 13 wrench with a universal join on one side, and for the radio-side (medial?) I had to use a grinder to thin down a 13mm open end wrench. Its tight. Fortunately, so is the steering column now.
Slowly but surely, getting all these things sorted out. Still need to get back to the squeak from my engine compartment...
