Rapom's Rocket - just another Duster build thread
A lite spritz of black paint to keep the shaft from rusting and the rest of the parts laid out for reassembly. (Pic 1)
All done! Result is zero slop between the shaft and the column. Was it worth all that work? Hell Yes! I drilled some dimples in the shaft to give the set screws something to bite into. All that's left is a little Locktite on the screws and reinstalling the column. Once the K and steering box are back in place I can drill the shaft for the Flaming River coupler. (Pic 2)
