You got an old one there! I just took apart an 88-89 and it was quite easy! That is if we are talking TILT WHEEL!A couple bolts to tighten up! They are pointing right and left when you are behind the wheel! If it's NOT tilt wheel then it's probably bearing related? Are you just saying the steering WHEEL is wobbly and not the actual car behavior?
