Need A Lil Help With Body Lift

[cushion101990]

i just finished installing a 3inch body lift on my '95 ranger, but i can not get the steering shaft apart to add the extension. i still drove it home from school and it turned fine, just a lil tight but not horrible. so if anyone has any info please tell me.


by the way well worth it and it looks amazing

ok i hace tried that but i got no where. maybe im a lil confused. on the shaft ther is a bolt at the top and one below the swivel joint where does the extension go?

ok on the steering box shaft there should be a slit in it. so you should be able to take a screw driver and hammer and pray it apart a little so it can slip out. the shaft should slide down towards the streering box alteast mine did. you might have to get a little phyiscal with it. or might have to drop the steering coloum and pull on it why someone hits the shaft with the hammer. hopes this helps.
