 Rob: this could be VERY dangerous as the shaft is collapsible, with an inner and outer casing. There are/were 2 nylon "breakaway" pins inside holding one shaft onto the other, and if broken(happens ALL the time when people are banging on it to exchange the exhaust headers) so that the smaller outer shaft that extends into through the firewall can have so much slop that the upper steering knuckle collapses and hits the exhaust header, giving you maybe 15 degrees of movement(ask me how I know!).
Removing the shaft is fairly simple, so please call/SKYPE me(under my profile) for help.
