Movable steering column

Push it back in place and make it hold with a nice think tie-wrap or hose
clamps (option I used)... 4 years later still holding. :)

Subject: Movable steering column

This just started yesterday on my 88 16V.  I can move my steering column up 
and down about 3 mm.  When I took a look underneath, I could see the 
steering column bearing (Bentley page 10-30 fig 7-2) was sitting out in the 
open not doing a damn thing. There was also a white plastic ring that was 
past the Bushing, sitting against the universal joint.  I tried to put the 
bearing back into place, but it's not staying.  Anyone have this happen 
before?  I can't tell what exactly happened here.  My initial impression was

that the bushing keeps the bearing in place, however, this no longer appears

to be the case.

TIA,
Craig
'88 Alpine White 16V
