Dash removal

there is a bracket that the steering column attaches to. you'll need to remove/loosen the 3 lower column bolts and also the 3 bolts that secure the column to the bracket under the dash. The dash will need to go back towards the rear, and then down and away from the column brace. Sounds like you're just about there. Make sure the bulkhead wiring harness connector is disconnected from the firewall. It will all come out as one unit 2 people are preferred to get it out one on each side. It is not overly heavy just awkward.
