I'd prefer to have it rebuilt locally but I just can't find a shop which does this.

In case anyone else reads this thread, there's a new product designed to help this issue. I'm not aware that it's offered by another vendor so I'll post the link here. I've ordered a pair to try them out.

Yeah, they are $25/each or $40 for a pair. I had the UE oversized tilt pins installed today, as well as replacing the turn signal harness... found I needed the cancelling cam also but it wasn't available locally, so at least one more visit inside the column is needed

So far as the tilt pins, the left side is now very solid, the right side still has a tiny bit of play, and if pushed too far to the right it sticks a bit when pulling it back left. I plan to pass along the lower housing part number to my tech so he can look up the diagram to see whether replacing that column will be helpful.
