Tilt Steering help

I have a Tilt Steering column I want to put in my 74. The only problem is that the steering wheel won't stay in position. If you pull down on the wheel, it comes down. Can anyone tell me what part I can change to fix this problem.

Thanks, Mike

Take off your steering wheel, remove the blinker assembly and the blinker rod that you push to use your blinker.

There is a metal peice that is there that suppose to be snapped and locked in place to lock the tilt. Make sure it didn't come off.
