On reassembly you may want to pull the steering column to ease access in that area. I don't really have a choice with the FE but it would help with any other engine as well. 2 bolts at the U-joint, set screws on the bracket on the footbox, a U bolt under the dash and an electrical plug are all that's there, so it's not very hard to do vs. hours of turning bolts a quarter of a turn at a time.

hope that helps, Steve
