ABSTRACT:
A steering column (10) includes a support (24), through which a steering column member (12) extends, connected with a mounting bracket (66). The support (24) supports the steering column member (12) for rotation about a longitudinal axis (26) of the steering column member. The support (24) is movable in a first direction extending transverse to the longitudinal axis (26) of the steering column member (12) relative to the mounting bracket (66). The support (24) is movable in a second direction extending transverse to the first direction and to the longitudinal axis (26) relative to the mounting bracket (66). The support (24) is also movable along the longitudinal axis (26) relative to the mounting bracket (66). A locking mechanism (130) locks the support (24) in any one of a plurality of positions along the first direction relative to the mounting bracket (66), in any one of a plurality of positions along the second direction relative to the mounting bracket, and in any one of a plurality of positions along the longitudinal axis (26) relative to the mounting bracket.
