STEERING COLUMN ASSEMBLY AND
STEERING LOWER SHAFT
NOTE:
When servicing steering column or any column-mounted
component, remove steering wheel. But when removing
steering column simply to gain access to instrument panel
components, leave steering wheel installed on steering col-
umn.
CAUTION:
Once the double tube type steering column is removed
from the vehicle, the column is extremely susceptible to
damage.
Dropping the column assembly on its end could col-
lapse the steering shaft or loosen the plastic shear
pins which maintain column length.
Leaning on the column assembly could cause it to
bend or deform.
Any of the above damage could impair the column’s col-
lapsible design.
