The present teachings include a steering column assembly including an outer tube and an inner tube adapted for fore and aft translation relative to the outer tube. The assembly includes an actuator for causing the fore and aft translation. The actuator includes a motor and a screw having a longitudinal axis that is rotationally driven about the longitudinal axis by the motor. The assembly includes a pivoting nut assembly adapted to travel fore and aft generally along an axis that is the same as or generally parallel with the longitudinal axis. The pivoting nut assembly includes a bracket that is operably Joined with the inner or outer tube, for causing fore or aft translation of the inner tube in response to operation of the motor, and a nut that is assembled on the bracket and is adapted for pivotal movement in an axis generally transverse to the longitudinal axis.
