Hi Dennis,
I had those same symptoms on my steering wheel. The collar for tightening
the wheel had 3 spot welds that had broken. Some had suggested using JB
weld, but I decided to drill and tap three grub screws where the original
welds were. Here are before and after photos.

My adjustable steering column won't lock to any position. The ridged ring on
the steering column spins but doesn't tighten.
Consequently, the steering wheel slides towards me or away from me as I
drive
- not a good thing.
Any suggestions?
