Removing the rag joint

[Droff]

I need to replace my rag joint, it's been soaked with PS fluid for several years. I know what I need to unbolt I just don't know how to get it out without removing the steering box or unbolting the steering column.
It looks like I have a collapsible column but don't know how I can get it to collapse other than maybe forcing it.
I've searched and found a lot of rag joint threads but haven't seen one with this info unless I just missed it.
Thanks.
