Default AU XR8 intermediate shaft help

Hi guys,

Hoping you can help with what (should be!) a pretty simple task. Having trouble getting the intermediate shaft on my AU back into position. Have tried some tips kindly provided but it seems like the shaft is too short.

As suggested, I start by inserting the firewall end of the shaft back into the uni joint. I then push it towards the firewall and position the other end over the steering rack, but it doesn't seem to go far down enough (without it pulling out of the firewall end). I'm assuming that the retaining bolts do need to go through the notches on either end of the shaft to hold it in place, but it just doesn't slide down fair enough on the rack end.

Hope that makes sense and any tips would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Julza
