Has anybody installed this without removing the steering column on an automatic?

Looking for instructions and feedback.

I did this on my manuel column does not need to be removed. there is one washer that has to be cut off, I used a Dremel tool to cut mine. I'm not 100% sure about your auto. If you go to there site you can contact them for questions.

Yep that's the way I did mine. Took maybe two hours taking my time. Had to remove and sand several times to get good fit. Made a big difference.

I also have a manual truck . I cut the steel retainer and have the tensioning spring out. How do I get the bushing out of the cup?? I've just about got my entire pliers/screwdriver set under the hood....

How the heck do you guys get around the break booster. I don't see a way from the top or below!

Great write up. Some of the things done I had forgotten from when I did mine. Thanks.

So i ended up just breaking up the old bushing with a screwdriver and pliers. I didn't get all of it out ,but is was enough to put the new one in... sorry for the late reply.
also, my truck has NO ABS , so no abs pump to work around. this made it easier for sure . this was still a pain in the ***...
