tilt wheel spring

I put new bearings in the steering column and have everything back together but how do you get the spring for the tilt steering compressed and back in place

Can you tell if you can get a tilt steering column for that style of dash as in Aus this was not an option

Thanks Jonathan

I am not sure how to answer your question.
I do not know what year or type truck you have.
Some salvage yards ship but I do not know how you go about getting them to ship to Aus.
Also we drive on the right side of the road here and I do not know if you can put a right hand column in a left hand truck or not.

No it is not.
The one in the photo has the wipers on the dash and the blinker arm is on the left side.
