ABSTRACT:
A steering column assembly includes a shift socket which is concentrically mounted on the steering column shaft, and includes a helical slot. A follower on a pivotable shift lever cooperates with the helical slot to pivot the shift lever as the shift socket is rotated. Accordingly, rotation of the shift socket causes movement of the shift lever, which translates the transmission shift cable for shifting the transmission. A single lock paw simultaneously locks both the shift socket and the steering column shaft from rotational movement.
