1. under thehood.. unbolt the steering knuckle, pull it apart.
2. inside the car.... take all the covers off the steering column, unplug the plugs, I believe there is 4, but not sure..
3. two bolts that hold the column up to the dash.
4. On the floor there is a rubber cover with several bolts,
5. That is the majority of the bolts, there may be a few small things to unhook, just be careful unplugging the wires at the steering column, they were very brittle on my 89!
