Hey guys , I am looking for the easy way out of loosing the rag joint on my 69 gs. The car build started out as a street/strip car but looks like more strip than street now. I have the stock manual steering from factory and would like to keep as much of it as I can. I have looked at many u-joints and trying to find an easy fit if there is one. Thanks
You can use a jeep shaft with some e work,..Borgeson is in my area actually,..used them a few times,..and will be using on of theirs on my 65 drag car
One of these will work after some measuring..........https://www.summitracing.com/search...rag-joints?SortBy=Default&SortOrder=Ascending
Thanks to all. So I should come off the spline end of my column with a u-joint borgeson replace my stock shaft and use theirs. What you refer to as a stainless steel version is it a u-joint , or s.s. version of a rag joint to fit the spline end of my steering box ? I am just trying to figure what you did John.
I know, I refer it as a one piece because there's no intermediate shaft and it pretty much is one piece until a frontal collision.
We did it for header clearance, the rag joint was rubbing no.1 tube. Plus, like Ethan said....it does look much better as a bonus.
