Stumped maybe stupid???????
You need to remove the C clips at the rear of the torsion bars, then totally loosen off the torsion bar bolts (the ones in your lower control arms), make sure you have the car up on jack stands, as it will sink down to the ground, and you don't want to be under. Then use a tool like this..
And smash on it with a hammer, knocking the torsion bars loose and out to the rear.
You can buy the pictured tool at www.manciniracing.com , I bought it and it works good, you just sometimes have to replace the bolts as they snap due to being beaten on.
As for steering box, you may want to slide the steering wheel up from inside, so again, remove column shift linkage, and undo the pin in the steering coupler. I believe that's what I did for mine.
