Re: Steering rack-wheel joint, how to remove/install? Posted by JimBlake [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Steering rack-wheel joint, how to remove/install?, Goran, Thu, 3 Mar 2005 09:02:10 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
You're talking about the u-joint at the bottom of the steering column, right?
I've been able to take the intermediate steering shaft completely out, after removing the (&*#^$*#&) knee bolster first...
Take the pinch-bolt completely out. It fits into a recess in the rack pinion shaft, so if you just loosen it the shaft won't come apart.
The upper shaft has a bearing close to the steering wheel, which lets the wheel telescope in/out. So when you slide the shaft up, the steering wheel can move outwards a bit.
When you put it back in, beware of the little pin/lever stuff that cancels the turnsignals. If the wheel is in just the wrong position you might break something when it drops into place.
