Has anyone seen this before? the steering column that goes into the engine bay from the cab has popped out i think? i can pull it out even further than the picture shows.Anyone know whats going on? I can still steer fine and something is bolted to the steering wheel so im confused?

I can only assume the shear pins have gone?
This is designed to happen only in an accident.

I take it its knackered then? or are these shear pins replaceable? I havent a clue! lol

If it is the shear pins , the manual says you have to replace the column.
These pins are quite hard to break I thought .
Somebody hopefully will have more advice if its the pins and if you can replace them.

Ok mate thanks! I'm guessing its to dangerous to drive? Or should it still be ok?

I must admit I can't understand why the column has come out at the bottom so much. I would have though it couldn't as the steering joint bar and steering box would not allow it to.


I don't know if it's safe to drive , but I would guess not.

The clean bit that has slid out from the bulkhead shouldnt be able to do that. I guess it must be on a sliding splined arrangement inside the cab. This shouldnt happen though. I certainly wouldnt drive it.

Your meant to have the bolt in the centre of the wheel. As the steering wheel is splined.

Yeah I was just showing that something is bolted to the steering I just don't know what the setup is meant to look like assembly wise?

Yeah I get you steering wheel end all looks okay buddy.
