    Push your adjustable steering column lever back up.

      The steering wheel is adjustable... you may have it loosen which is why it hangs real low and when you bump it... it move up like you mention.

        steering wheel

        hey guys thanks for the input, the steering is up and locked as tight as it can get. and it still moves, is there a bolt under the dash that can be tightened?

          In a normal situation, when the lever is pushed down the steering column is then able to be adjusted up and down to wherever u want it. Once its at the desired level u then push the lever back up to lock it in place (I'm not telling u how to do it cuz I'm sure u already know how, I'm just talking it out). So how is it moving exactly? Is it moving up and down as if the adjustable lever is not doing its job? Like when u lock the lever up the steering column still moves up and down?

            Also check that the actual steering wheel is bolted to the hub firmly (remove the center and you'll need a socket + ratchet + long extension).

                I would remove the plastic around the steering column and check the lever out. There may be a way to tighten it somehow. Regardless, when u remove the plastic it'll give u a better look at what is going on.

                  Ratchet +19mm socket + 6" extension. Remove nut and pull. Remember how the wheel is positioned so you can put it back on correctly. Lol.

                    What exactly will removing his steering wheel accomplish?

                      The problem is clearly with the adjustable steering column and not the steering wheel itself.

                      Off topic tip: The spare tire lug wrench is perfect for getting the steering wheel nut off.

                        steering wheel

                        Hey fam, I figured out what the problem was, there is a white plastic collar on the shaft that takes up the slack. It slid out of the bracked. once I slid it back into the collar and the slack is gone no more movement.
