4x4 sapphire steering rack change......
how do you unbolt the little basted 13mm bolt on the end of the steering column where it hides behind the front diff when changing a steering rack?
do you have to remove the steering shaft at the bulkhead, unbolt the rack and pull it thru then unbolt it or is there an easier way?
cheers - need to do mine asap - tooooo much free play to be safe

Have you got access to a ramp,lot easier if you have? The best thing to do is undo at the bulkhead then turn the shaft until the bolt head is at the top.Its quite hard to explain but if you just try turning the steering until you can get a spanner on it from underneath.
