Steering UJ's and speedo

[ChrisGadd]

Hi all, been a while since posting been busy with work and moving to Aberdeenshire.
Can someone confirm if the steering UJ's need to be at 90 Deg to each other?
Also when out on the very bumpy Scottish roads my Speedo on one side has dropped into the back of the dash. Do I need to remove the dash to sort this or can it be done in situ?

To be honest I'm not sure it makes much/any difference on a steering column, bit different on a propshaft whizzing round.


Can't help with the Speedo, different dash, mine come out through the front but hopefully (for you) can be done with dash in. lot more access if you drop or better still remove, the steering column

Thanks for the quick reply Mike, mine is a standard S3 dash as far as I'm aware so not sure if the dials should come out from the front? If so something is not right with my Speedo 😱
