The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Steering box removal. 1950 F-1

Am I correct in assuming you can leave the column in place? But yeah you need to get the sector shaft free of the frame so that looks impossible without at least loosening the column at the dash and the filler plates on the floor? So far I have the steering wheel off, and the clamp around the column at the top of the box loosened. This is a column shift truck, so removing the linkages looks like a must also, so you can move the column over to remove the steering shaft. Can anyone help with what needs to be undone to slide the box and shaft out? Working on it right now.
