If your 85 is like my 87, there is a groove in the steering shaft that goes in the split clamp - and they have to line up. If I understood your proposed method, the groove and clamp may misalign and prevent the clamp bolt from insertion.

Short of stripping the rack and adjusting the pinion, I'd say pulling the steering wheel is your only option to get you close, and then you would need to make only minor changes using the TR ends.

Also, I think you need those big TTR washers.
