    Steering coupler installation on steering column

    It does sound like a good investment. I have seen them on E-bay and think I will get one. As I understand it Chrysler introduced them because the seals and caps kept failing and the poor mechanics were constantly fixing them. Thanks for info will make a note of it when I get mine.
