I got my old rack out and the new rack is in, but I can not for the life of me get the steering column to slide down on to the steering rack. The splines seem to be lined up correctly, but the darned thing just sets on top of the rack without popping down. Is there some trick to getting the joint to pop on to the rack? I've tried from underneath and from the top trying to jiggle the column enough for it to slide on - to no avail. I've already bolted the subframe back up - should I have connected it up while the subframe was dropped?
Car is a 1990 Corrado G60
Any tips or advice would be appreciated - even if it is "just keep on jiggling" to let me know I am on the right (but tough) track.
