Recently detached the "steering knuckle" linkage / universal joint connector to steering shaft - to install 2-replacement rubber "dust covers". After reassembly, noticed the "Tilt Steering" bracket was only allowing a 1/3 to 1/2 adjustment of the full tilt arc bracket.

Have checked & rechecked steering shaft is inserted correctly into the steering knuckle, and no other linkage connections were changed - simple stupid - we cannot figure out why the steering tilt adjustment is now reduced to only a small portion of the adjustment arc ?? The tilt steering housing "collar" is the restriction point - it only allows the shaft to be adjusted a limited distance - but when new - we thought we had full adjustability of the collar / and arc bracket ? Any advice much appreciated ! Thanks !

Start over. Remove the replacement rubber "dust covers" then reassemble everything as it was. See if anything changes. If it seemed fine before you did the work, something you did must have created the issue. You'll figure it out then wonder how you missed an obvious error. Easy enough to do.
