What do you mean remove the column and do the coupler? It can be done in minutes (25 to 30)right in the car. Drive the pin out. pry the coupler back and off the box. Disassemble . Replace the shoes , putting them in the right way (opposite of what looks right to most of us. Start the pline on the box and shove back in place. Drive the pin through. Done.

There is an article on the web site under Tech ramblings you should look at.
