Hello Chris,

Your "short" steering column might be caused by the collapsable steering column section attached directly to the steering box.

The 2 piece shaft can slip and you might have to try to tighten the clamping/collet nut which ain't easy to do. I usually have to use a small pipe wrench to tighten.

Before you try to install the steering wheel, try moving the the steering column.

You might have to use a hammer and drift to make it move.
