STEERING COLUMN

Post by **rubarb** » 13 Mar 2009, 18:34

I AM TRYING TO REMOVE THE DASHBOARD TO REPLACE THE HEATER MOTOR. I NEED TO REMOVE THE STEERING COLUMN BUT I AM HAVING TROUBLE REMOVING THE "ANTI-VIBRATION" BRACKETS THAT ARE UNDER THE SPEEDOMETER. THESE BRACKETS ARE ATTACHED FROM THE STEERING COLUMN TO THE MADE BODY OF THE VEHICLE JUST UNDER THE WINDSCREEN. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY HANDING HINTS TO HELP ME. CHEERS

Use a good quality Dot Punch to remove the 'Shearbolts' that hold the column to the brackets, column will then fall out of the way........re-fit using standard 8mm set set screws and spring washers.

THANKS FRITZ. JUST TO CLARIFY, ARE THE "SHEARBOLTS" THE FUNNY DOMED SHAPED THINGS THAT FACE TOWARDS THE DRIVER'S SEATS. CHEERS
