Correct installation of hardware in column at steering box

Hi,

I've completed the restoration of my steering column and have come to the point where I need to replace the pin and metal spacers that are located inside the end of the column that attached to the steering box. Can anyone give me a diagram as to which way the metal spacers actually go inside the housing? (They seem to fit 2 ways)
I want to make sure this it right! Steering is kinda important!

Thanks all!!!

I am sure i have posted the only available diagrams of that area on here before? Have a look and see if you can find them. If you can't I will have a look myself later or tomorrow.

Shows a clear image of the coupler parfs. I can't imagine they are difficult now Ive seen 'em but I still don't remember what I did to install 'em :roll:

Dave, is there some way we can have a library of popular tech articles (like the "stickys")?

Not sure I understand what you are asking Adrian? :?

In fact the more I think about it the more confused I get. :lol:
