It's a good idea to have steering rack in place... then you can make sure you have a clear route for the link. If you look at the sierra i persume you got the column out of... you'll see the size you need which is much smaller than the hole size in the brackets. Cant remember what size mine are, sorry

I used some m12s i think. Its not it the final position yet as i havent got the right sized steering wheel on. I think they should be enought to hold it.

If its Sierra they are M8 and use the very thick washers from the donor.

I used m12's, and drilled out the sierra washers to fit. The holes in the MK are for 12mm bolts anyway.
