telescoping steering problem

[ndmeathead]

2010 m8 w/ factory steering isn't staying up when adjusted. haven't used the sled much in the last two years, took ice fishing a few weekends ago and noticed the issue. it seemed like the components that lock in place on the adjustment may have been sticking but am looking for an easy answer if there is one. heading for the mountains weekend after next and want to get the issue fixed before the road trip. any help is much appreciated.

there's a boot on the bottom, fully extend it and pull the boot down and then spray a little WD-40 or other lubricant on the shaft and then exercise it up and down, that should free up the retention mechanism.

Or do what I did and get the Zbroz adjustable post delete kit, I was sick of the issues associated with it.
