Ignition Key issues..... urgent!
I am in a serious predicament, I am headed to relocate my car in 5 hours.
Now the problem is I have misplaced the key as of this morning, I am moving it with a car dolly to my residence and I only had today to get it moved. Currently the wheels are straight but the issue is getting it in the place it needs to be after. Anyone have any ideas?
My first thought was to remove the steering lock, but I would rather have another option. I am pretty sure I can order a key from the dealer but that wont help today.

If all else fails you can uncouple or cut the steering shaft and position the wheels independently.
You can't remove the steering lock without the key. I've replaced 4 early style ignition switches and you always need the key.

That's a great idea! Then I can just order a new key and nothing was damaged.
Edit: OK so after doing a little searching I believe the rack has to come out to remove the steering shaft.
Any other options?
