ABSTRACT:
A motor vehicle steering column lock includes a drove rod element extending axially along a bore within the housing of the steering column lock for actuating a steering column locking bolt member in accordance with known steering column lock mechanisms. The drive rod element of the steering column lock is provided with a radial projection that cooperates with a radial wall of an enlarged recess of the bore extending through the lock housing for preventing axial withdrawal of the drive rod element from the housing and also includes an axial locking projection that is spring biased into a locking recess for preventing relative rotation between the drive rod element and the housing when the steering column lock is transported or stored without a lock cylinder installed in the housing.
