Best Answer

column cap plates are commonly used to secure the column head to a beam using bolts driven through the plate and beam bottom flange. The plate is welded to the column head usually with fillet welds although fully penetrating butt welds would be better since this would provide the greatest restraint to bending and shear (transverse/longitudinal) at the plate/column head junction.

How do you replace ignition switch on 1986 camaro?

Remove the dress plate under the steering column. There is a clip there for the shift indicator, if you shift on the column. There are two nuts on studs, one on each side of the column, remove these nuts, and the steering column will drop down. The switch is on top of the column just lower then the fastening bracket. Unplug the wiring, remove the screws that retain the switch, install new one and adjust. Put everything back together.
