Disco-Ron Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Hi all, i will in a couple of weeks be swapping the steering column in my 300tdi 90 for another one, is there any tips anyone can give me? Does the column come out through the cab or engine bay? Any tips appreciated! Ta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landy V8 Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 pretty straightforward really. from memory, remove steering wheel remove dash top and binnacle remove steering lock/ignition by drilling sheer bolts undo steering uj's two bolts on end of column 3/4 bolts where it joins the bulkhead 1 bolt where it is supported on the inside behind the binnacle withdraw steering column from engine compartment. and in the haynes manual way,refitting is a reversal of the procedure hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco-Ron Posted November 1, 2011 Author Share Posted November 1, 2011 Well, not so easy after all, removed the servo, and now clutch master cylinder, . Obviously dash panel and wheel, had to but a groove in the bulkhead to get the car through that bolts to the dash, otherwise i reckon you need to remove the entire dash, still, nearly out now, then i gotta figure what order to get it back together. . .
