Steering Column Repair - Lower Bearing

[peter at thescirocco.com (Peter)]

You can get it apart like that, but it's close to impossible to get it
re-assembled, without dropping it down, 4 6mm allens.

Has any one removed their steering column?  The Bently is not very clear as
to the complete removal.  Otherwise if I diconnect the U Joint at the bottom
can I slide the inside up and out?  I need to get the outer portion of the
lower bearing out of the bottom of the housing so I can install the new
one.   If I could pull the inner shaft out I could drive it down and out.
