Hi, just noticed while setting up my steering collumn that the top mount for the sierra collumn has a sliding bit in it too, presumably for if you headbut the steering wheel! Heres a photo of mine at the mo, can anyone please tell me if the mount is in the right position on the collumn or should it be slid to where the red box is that ive drawn? or even the other end? It feels like it would move quite easily, is this correct? And while im on the subject, can someone please confirm the length of the smaller triangular telescopic section at the bottom of the collumn to make sure this hasnt moved either. Thanks in advane.

Doesn't look collapsed to me. The triangular telescopic bit can be moved in or out a bit to suit your application.

The triangular white plastic slider can be drawn further out to push the spring in the picture further in, i have an adjustable column that has the convoluted cover more sqaushed up than yours but once set up i can slide it in and out on the white slider and move up and down on the adjuster.

Where abouts is the triangular white plastic slider? Do you mean the collumn is meant to slide in and out on that ally mount? Wat stops it moving when your driving, it feels ass if it would a te mo

the way you're column is set is fine. yes the ali bit will move up and down that part but it is held in place by a bolt at the bottom. it is moveable to suit the fitting.

The bottom triangular piece is adjustable also to a degree and it is meant to move in and out and there is no fixed measurement, again it will end up in a position to suit you're car.
