I use a bungee cord to hold the steering wheel in position during the job to keep it from making a rotation and causing a misalignment.

See, you're skilled and I'm not. Big difference.
I managed to somehow get mine off by one spline, which was more annoying than anything else. A turn of each tie rod fixed it, but I finer line would have helped my old eyes line things up better.
I even managed to get it one off the first time I reassembled the one I did Sunday but was able to catch it b/c of the fine line from the chisel. Sharpie lines are too wide for my liking.
