Intermediate steering shaft install

I cannot get the upper end mate with the steering column portion that comes out from the firewall. I even tried tapping it in with a 3 pound hammer but to no avail. Is there a trick to this? :mad:

My TA being an SE with the WS6 would probably have come with the mat. What does the PHS package include? From what I heard the build sheet is not part of it, right?

That is a tough one. The parts have been stored in a garage in N.Texas for the past 5 years. Not climate controlled. Any way to verify usability? Can the lines be flushed to see if rust is an issue?

Intermediate steering shaft color

Does anyone have an original low mileage 77-81 to verify the color [if any] of the intermediate steering shaft? I cleaned the one on my car and it appears to black paint on stainless steel. Cheers.

Aircleaner decal

If you have a 1981 TA with the 301 motor, would you be able to tell me what filter the decal specifies? This is "Keep Your GM car All GM" decal I am referring to. Cheers.
