Stop in for a cup of coffee

So, interesting turn of events. Just to het horn to work i tore column down 2x. First time i was at the point where wheel goes on and i discover steering shaft is 180 degrees out. Give or take. Tear it down again and flip shaft at the tilt ball. Not an easy task. So im thinking the “person” that had column apart didnt have a clue. Its finally done,but 5 hours work.
