The steering column on a TR4 is adjustable (actually the adjustment is
also the impact absorption device). The column can be moved after the
jam nut & allen screw combination are loosened.
Normally one would move the steering wheel in or out with the set screw
loosened but with the coupling detached I suppose one could move the
column itself back a bit. You might try loosening the jam nut / set
screw and see if you can slide the portion of the column just above the
upper coupling back down a bit.
