Lower Steering shaft removal. I have the maintenance manual for my truck but it doesn't cover much detail for the GMC 4000. I can't figure out how to get the lower steering shaft out. Do I have to loosen and lift up on the steering column to get this section out? As you can see in the pictures, I have to service this section and replace the rubber boots covering the joints so I have to get this section out. Thanks for any information. Hopefully, someone here has done this before.
