Followed your video on steering box replacement. You failed to mention to secure wheel before removal of steering shaft. Now the wheel spun around several times so how do you make the wheel back so all the wires do not get torn out of the column when I turn?

Unfortunately the wheel should have been locked in place as you will now need to replace the clock spring in the steering wheel. I'l advance this to our video people.

When we did the job the ignition key was off locking the wheel. We will put an annotation in the video to tell people not to do this.

Thanks for your input, Please email your address and shirt size so we can send you a free tee shirt.
