Alright a big Thank you for bringing attention to the arm connected to the stalk and switch. That arm was not properly connected. It looks like the lock cylinder was changed at one point and whoever put it back together didn't know what they were doing. The steering wheel wasn't on tight and the lock ring wasn't even on. I properly attached the lever and now the turn signals work and the stalk is LESS floppy but still has a bit of play to it. Anyone know the name of the part that the stalk connects to?

I just ordered the turn signal switch from rockauto and just need to grab a steering wheel puller to get to work once it arrives.

Yeah I've already fired the parts cannon at it and was able to get it running. Needed a new head and thorough cleaning, the CCV was clogged and soaked every last thing in oil. I converted to open cooling and flushed everything I didn't replace. Removed and tossed the fenders and the header panel. The goal now is road worthiness. The bed has a liner in decent shape the tailgate still works too.

Thanks for the reply, I guess I'll tear it apart and see what's what. The horn center cap for the wheel was off and the hazard switch is also broken so I suspect the previous owner was in there.

Hello, I'm in the process of getting my Comanche back on the road and realized the turn signal mechanism is toast. It doesn't appear to be the actual stalk but something deep in the column. Is there something that could break and not allow the turn signals to activate? The high beams work but turn signals to click and the washer sometimes works. The whole thing is floppy. I attached a photo I can't tell if that's broken or just looks that way. Anybody know what part I would need and while I am in the column anything else I should change or check on while in there? Thanks
