[QUOTE="Woody6799, post: 915237, member: 15356"] So while doing my 03 interior swap I had to swap my steering wheel of course. I took the steering wheel puller and the new wheel, still attached to the whole column, set it up and promptly ripped the threads right out of the steering wheel. So I set it up on the wheel in the car, made some adjustments, made sure everything was correct and ripped those threads out as well. So next, I placed the puller bolt where the steering wheel nut went and whacked it with a hammer a few times, allowing it to compress and the wheel to come off. I mounted the new wheel and off I went... Here is the issue. The steering shaft now sits lower and lays in the firewall where it passes through. How can I tell if I damaged the shaft? How do I adjust the shaft? Does anyone want to help fix my shaft? Is there a medication I should take for this? Also, I cant seem to attach the airbag and make the horn work properly... can anyone shed light on this?? There is only a few more weeks of nice weather and my stang is down and out, please help... My shaft and I thank you... [/QUOTE]
