Silverado SS AWD V8-6.0L VIN N (2003)
The redesigned steering column has a convoluted style intermediate shaft (Figs.1.22.and 1.23). The C1500 has one convoluted area, while all other
models have two. These convoluted areas must be inspected for damage after every airbag deployment. Test the straightness of the shaft at various
locations along the convoluted area by placing a straight edge against the intermediate shaft. The intermediate shaft must be replaced if bent or damaged.
