teleflex steering unit removal

[daveydoodle]

Have a 1997 alumicraft with above hydraulic steering assy. am trying to pull out of the dash wood and just replace the dash panel. Have the dash off so I have access , have the wheel off. Took nut off the wheel side of the shaft and see it goes thru the unit to a cap with a lock pin on inside. On the wheel side is a steel round assy. that the allen nuts secures the wheel to. I see 3 screws inside the unit that I cannot get to. Anyone know what comes next to remove it?? Thanks for any help.

Trying to load some pics, is photo bucket the only way to do this?? Having trouble with it even with the instructions..Cant get pics to load . Further on the issue. I found this is not hydraulic steering (has a capped plastic tube about 18 inches long with what looks like oil in it) I can only see2 ways I can get this assy. out of the 3 inch hole.1.The end of the shaft has a locking cap with a pin going thru it and the shaft it would seem I could pull out the shaft with the steering wheel mounting attached.2.the same wheel bracket seems like it should slide out off the shaft(splines??) if coaxed enough. Shoot I read this over and see it would be difficult to grasp but sure some member has done this. Apologies on no pics. but appreciate any opinions. I may try to call Teleflex next wk.
