    Ok, here's a question
    how do you fit it when the steering wheel and main shaft want to come out of the steering column on a column shift auto WB?

    Not too sure what you mean.... The steering shaft is coming out of the column with the wheel still firmly attached?

    If that's the case you've got one of a couple of issues: The top part of the colapsable shaft has come adrift or the top bearing has come adrift and/or the lower part of the steering shaft is no longer firmly attached to anything. That is from the info you've given, is the spring and circlip in place at the top of the steering shaft just below the splines?

    Could you give a bit more info, possibly a photo as well?

    Dave.

    sounds like the top bearing has broken the die cast in the pot that holds it in....which meens you will need to replace the top pot..
