Ron, The circuit for the horn completes via the steering column, and it does go all the way down the column to the steering rack to complete the route to ground. The circuit is:
Batt + ___ fuse ___ horn ___ horn push ___ steering column ___ steering rack ___ ground I have heard your story before (not suffered it personally, since my 1500 had a stalk-monted horn push), and it comes down to the knuckle joint - early cars had one that included an electrical connection between the upper and lower parts, but the replacements now available do not have this connection. Since the knuckle joint uses rubber washers, there is no continuous electrical connection from one side to the other. Not sure if you can bodge a good knuckle joint with a connection out of the new one and your old one - and it sounds like you'd rather not do the swap-out again anyway! Otherwise, you'll have to attach a short wire between the upper and lower sides of the knuckle joint, to keep the circuit good - and make sure the wire won't catch on anything as you turn the steering wheel!
