Steering column rattle

[Frank Clarici <spritenut@comcast.net>]

Early Sprite (67) non collapsable column.
It only bolts to the rack and is held up by a single bracket nbehind the 
dash. I know there are shims under the bracket. But no amount of shims 
will stop the rattle of the column.
The rack is tight as is the pinion pinch bolt.
I never had this before and it's driving me nuts.
It seems loose where it passes through the floorboard hole but there is 
no attachment down there.
Any ideas?
