When I did my steering box I took off the front plate complete with gear wheel and steering arm. I then gripped the column in my vice and screwed the box from the column. It was tight so I completely removed the pinch bolt and gently tapped a wedge down the opening to open the threads a little. It does not want much at all the free it up. It can off then and all went back together ok with the pinch bolt tightening thing up again after adjustment.
