Access to the steering box for adjustment (gen 3)

Hi, I am trying to tweak some sloppiness out my steering wheel on my 70k mile 2007. I've inspected the usual suspects for wear (bushings, tie rod ends etc) and everything seems in reasonable enough shape so I'd like to give my steering box a little adjustment to see if it improves things.

Problem is, as a novice DIYer, it seems to be a bit of a pain to access because the fan cowling getting in the way. Am I missing something obvious here or do I need to remove or loosen bits to gain access? In the threads I've looked up nobody seems to mention this as a problem but perhaps they're just a bit more competent at jobs like this than I am!

Any pictures or guidance would be welcome.

I need to do the same job.  The cowl is attached by four bolts so you could take them out and see if there is some wiggle room?  You can't actually remove the cowl while the radiator is in place, but it will move around a bit.

Yeah, I'll maybe give it a closer look at the weekend. I was just surprised by how many posts and discussions didn't seem to acknowledge the difficulty of access so thought there might be some trick to it.

I access it from the top with a couple of extensions on a ratchet. No need to remove anything.

Ah, went out and can see the access isn't that bad from above. Looks like the LHD models are easier to access (per this video: ). The annoying thing with coming in from above with extensions is that you can't hold the screw in place as you tighten / loosen which isn't ideal.

Would a very long screwdriver reach?  You can buy such things - I have a couple for obscure bicycle jobs.
