help replacing steering box

[v12lincoln]

Im replacing my steering box on my 48 conv. coupe and would like to know if the sleve unbolts at the top by the shift linkage?

Its all unbolted and slid down ready to drop, have a rebuilt one ready to go back in.

Never mind, got it figured out.

If you ever have to do this, take the steering wheel off, take out the front seat coushion, dissconnect the shifter linkage and seperate the shifer bracket that holds onto the steering column, dissconnect the wiring to the steering wheel to allow travel of the column, unbolt the steering box and lift it up and slide it out of the car.

If your lucky the column cover will come loose and you can skip everything after taking off the steering wheel and skip right to unbolting the box and lifting it enough to clear the frame and slide it out, this was done with no radiator or engine in the car.
