AlV 69 Dodge GTS project
Feedback it's welcome and appreciated because i look at with inexperienced eyes and could use all the help I can get. Thanks!
Right, so after looking over the steering box I turned my attention to the steering column. I noticed that the coupler that connects the steering column to the steering box was missing the grease seal and cover. To my surprise (after removing the column) I found that this coupler was a complete mess and that it would take more than a freshen up to make it right. On top of the coupler issues I found that the lower steering bearing was looking pretty worn. With the column out I plan to replace the bearing and repair or replace the coupler. . As a side benefit it'll a lot easier to work on the dash wiring without the steering wheel in the way.
I picked up a new coupler with a rebuild kit, plus bearings and seals. Here's the column broken down, cleaned and ready for reassembly.
the finished unit is up on the shelf. and I'm on to the next thing.:iconbigg:
