In the spirit of having too many projects going at once, I tore down the interior to remove the dash while there was also a front suspension refresh planned.
If the steering wheel is already removed, is there any issue with needing to precisely line-up the U-Joint from the shaft into the steering rack, or can it kinda just be close, and just make sure the wheel is centered when it gets time to rebuild the dashboard? I do have the rack centering bolt.
Or should I do interior first so that the wheel can be used as a a point of reference for the rack install?

there is only one way the shafts will line up with the rag joint ,
once thats done put the centering bolt into the rack then put the steering wheel on
