Re: Late model steering column disassembly

These are pressed in.....I think it's metric threaded.
I have removed these before by using a metric stud,threaded in,
vise grips on the end of the stud at a 90 degree angle,
and gently and SQUARELY tapping on the vise grips with a hammer.

Another method could be using a large socket ,the rod and a nut and several
washers
to pull it out as you tighten the nut.

Best of luck....it's a pain....and watch out for the ball bearings
on the upper and lower part of this section,they tend to fall out of the
bearing cage.
