1. Install the J 42640 in the steering column lower access hole.

the coil assembly.
2. Mark the relationships of the following components:
^
Mark the relationship of the bolt and clamp at both ends of the upper intermediate shaft.
^
Mark the relationship of the upper intermediate shaft to the lower intermediate shaft.
Important: Mark the relationship of the intermediate shaft components in order to assure proper installation.
