[DeTomaso] Steering wheel wobble

Not exactly wheel wobble............... but my steering column always feels
like it has some up & down play and wants to rattle at times. I've had the
column down several times for different projects and I've checked the
tightness of the 4 bolts that hold the column up and they are quite tight.
Any suggestions to make the column more stable?

I had that same problem. The balancing machine (Hunter) said balanced, but
it shook a little and started losing air. Tire shop tried for hours on two
occasions to find a leak but couldn't. A month later it started shaking
violently. The tire had come apart inside and was egg-shaped on the backside
(looked round when on the car).
