How can I get this ba*** down again into steering rack?

This little piece seem to have popped out while I was trying to get loose one of those bolts that hold the ignition switch assembly.

 

I presume it's supposed to be pressed a bit into the inside of where the bearing sits - but so far without any success.

 

Was able to get the spring etc in position - but there was a small movement in the rod - so I suppose this is to hold it steady...

 

Any tips appreciated:
