ABSTRACT:
A tiltable vehicle steering column assembly including a steering shaft assembly constituted by an upper shaft and a lower shaft which are connected together by a first universal joint. A transmission shift rod assembly is provided on the steering shaft assembly and constituted by an upper rod portion and a second rod portion which are connected together by a second universal joint so that the upper rod portion can be tiltably moved together with the upper shaft of the steering shaft assembly. The second universal joint is located at a side of and in the same heightwise position as the first universal joint so that the upper rod portion of the shift rod assembly is not relatively moved with respect to the upper shaft of the steering shaft assembly when the steering shaft assembly is tiltably moved.
