Steering coupler

I've always thought of those bail clips as a bandaid for a poor original seal/retainer design. Personally, I've never had a problem with a properly crimped retainer. I do like the molded boots though. Those look pretty slick.
I like um too. Some folks will probably think my zip ties look stupid, but nobody makes one specifically for the early A clamp on coupler and while it fits pretty good, it's not as tight as it could be. So I sealed it with some RTV and put a couple of zip ties around it to hold it on tight. It doesn't leak and that's all that matters to me. Steer and Gear sells them.
