Greg,

Problem 1 - The bolt is no reference. The reference is the FLAT on the input shaft of the steering box.

Get out manual X7525, page 9-39 look at figure. That flat is what has to line up with the machined surface and the steering wheel should be straight ahead at that position. If that isn't right, nothing else matters.

(Should I add BTDT??)
