Removing steering coupler assembly to replace rag joint

[vetnat]

Also, in case you haven't opened up the package for your rebuild kit yet, it does have instructions. I couldn't see the instruction sheet till I opened the package. I used tx firefighter's thread and the instruction sheet, they are complimentary to each other. However, in post #23 of that thread, a discrepancy is brought up about how to install the sleeve nut, I followed the instruction sheet... And in post #24, the question on how to remove the rag joint from the steering shaft is never answered, so mine stayed on the shaft...
