I made sure my steering wheel was locked before i took the column off, and its in the straight position, so hopfully it wont be off too bad. If the vdc light is on does that cut power constantly?

On the u-joint for the socket. You can wrap a piece of tape around it too, to hold it in position.

It's easy to fix. Just be sure you line it up like you think it should be, then put the wheels back on, drive it down the street and back, adjust it as needed.

Not on mine. The rack and pinion shaft and the u-joint only went on one way with mine. Both have an blank spline that had to be lined up for it to go together. My steering wheel was straight and the Z drove straight. The alginment was spot on too. Ended up with the dealer resetting the sensor. The only way to fix it on mine.
