Well, I've never detached the U-joint from the column, but I would think it is just the same in that the column's own internal shaft would have a notched section that the bolt lays into as an added anti-detachment feature just like every other bolted section along with the entire length of the steering linkage. Make sure the insertion depth is just right and you should be able to secure the bolt. Now, the main shaft is more of a D-shape. Maybe this upper portion integral to the column is the exact same and you'd need to rotate the U-joint (independently of both the main shaft and the steering column shaft!).</p></blockquote><p></p>
