Michael,
As Greg and other have mentioned, you must tighten the compression fitting  
on the end of the steering box.
 
You should also check the floor where you park to see if you have leaked  
much of the high viscosity oil that is used for lubrication.
 
That would need to be refilled if that has been going on for awhile.

If your  BJ8 works the same as my BN1 the nut on the end of the steering box
where  the turn signal and horn wires come out is what keeps the assemble
from  pulling out or turning.

A long tube called the stator tube is attached  to the control head and goes
all the way down to the steering box, if you  have an adjustable wheel it may
be different, not as familar with  those.  Anyway the nut on the end of the
steering box holds the stator  tube in place with a brass compression
fitting.
