Default 77 K10 Steering Column

My truck has a tilt column in it and it needs tightening up. The pivot pins look to be threaded but 8-32 won't go and metric will but tears the threads. The book calls for a
J-21854 special tool for removal. I need to make something to remove the pivot pins. If they aren't hard I could tap them, but then what. Anybody dealt with this before.
