An adjustment mechanism for a steering column includes a lever rotatable to move the adjustment mechanism between a locked position and an unlocked position. The adjustment mechanism also includes a lever connector extending away from an inner face of the lever inwardly toward an axis of the steering column, the lever connector having a lever threaded portion. The adjustment mechanism further includes a cam located adjacent to the lever. The adjustment mechanism yet further includes a cam connector extending away from an outer face of the cam outwardly away from the axis of the steering column, the cam connector having a cam threaded portion engaged with the lever threaded portion to convert rotational motion of the lever to translational motion of the cam.
