hard to say, that part looks like its a thick washer, but it isnt. im not even sure what it actually does, i dropped my steering column, saw it and didnt see its purpose

Probably just a spacer or something. I dunno.

heh, you shoot in the dark, i work in the dark... i should really invest in a trouble lamp. atleast i got those damn pedals done, now its just a few hours of work to get the whole front end back together. and depending on how much of a headache the steering column gives me, maybe a few days
