On the left (driver's ) side, the steering column runs through the
bracket where the motor mount is supposed be fastened to the body.
This makes it virtually impossible to get the nut started on the stud
which runs into the bottom of the rubber mount. I have managed to do
this twice before by using an refrigerator magnet to position the nut,
but this time that trick does not seem to work. Is there any
alternative to removing the steering rack?
If I have to remove the steering rack, where can I get the special
tool that the manual shows for aligning the upper an lower parts of
the column?
