The stock shaft will work, you need to trim it and then drill and pin the included coupler to the end of your column shaft, we supply the drill bit and pins with the coupler.

This overdrive trans came out of a '90 D150 4x4 it's a 2 pin electric coupler.

^^^^^^^ Agreed, there are 3 pins used here. The big roll pin holds the coupler to the input shaft of the steering gear. The tiny roll pin helps keep the internal guts of the coupler from just falling out. The last pin is the main one that takes a press to install it in the lower end of the...

2nd question: How in the hell did you get the pin out the end? Murdered one with a sledge and it didnt budge. I wouldnt think these would be in this tight as the coupler prevents them from dropping out. Interference fit, yes but not 60 ton press fit!

I received my steering coupler/U-joint. Steering box side is splined with a set screw. Shaft side is smooth. The end of the shaft still has the pin through it where the old coupler Plunges/engages. I was thinking of notching the new coupler to receive the pin on either side of the shaft. There...

I always thought that small pin was to make sure the coupler stays with the shaft and prevent the shaft (w/ shoe pin) from popping off the seal and cover.

I made a tool if I can find I will post it.

I was pulling entire 75 model steering column once and didn't hold it up well enough. the coupler caught the edge of the hole in firewall. Coupler guts blew right through that tiny pin and cap crimp as if it weren't there. Wasn't a very hard impact either. This gave me the idea that the added...

if the horn works, the relay, if there is one, also works....relays on horns must be a later thing i haven't seen a horn with a relay, but my exprience is all 1971 car. did you check for continuity with the switch off the wheel or bolted down. Happy to admit i don't know these switches but...

...is a roll pin that needs to be removed with a hammer and punch. These pins only go in and out one way, so if you aren't having any success turn the wheel and spin the knuckle around 180°. Here is a coue of links to help... Best way to remove steering coupler pin pin stuck in steering...

A lot depends on the configuration of your engine compartment so the manual would not address those differences. I had to jack up the engine a couple of inches to get mine out through the top. Also, you don't need to actually remove the column, just unbolt it from the firewall & under dash...

??Purpose of the pin?? Makes DAMN sure the coupler does not come off the steering box!! I'm confused. Is the OP worried about up/ down shaft play up at the wheel? I believe anything that retains such is up there in the column head, not down at the coupler The coupler is...

You're in a similar boat I was in. My 66 Dart had the same coupler you're deadling with. Luckily, mine had the two rectangular springs and they were in good shape - as were the shoes and coupler body. I simply replaced the seal and installed a set screw to act as the small safety pin on later...

Wrong pin. He's questioning this one.......

OK.. sorry to be so needy. Just found this photo with a weird dowel pin that doesn't appear to be present on mine? 72 manual column shift. Whats the deal with the dowel pin? Seems like might hold the column in the coupler and prevent in/out movement.

For those of you that have the earlier steering couplers that don't use a roll pin and you want to install the "spring clip retainer" that is available for only the couplers with a roll pin, this is how I did little modification to make one work on my 65 Barracuda.

YY1 I used one the correct spline for the box on one end, and then I knocked the pin out of rod and ran a bolt though the round coupler end. I also add some set screws in the round end to take any slop. I don't remember what the spine count was but if do some research you can figure that...

Just wondering. Wont the pin, or a bolt people put in, engage before the shoes thus rendering the entire purpose of the joint useless? It seems as if the whole Purpose of the coupling is to allow a modicum of slippage to absorb road vibration. Which a double pinned coupling would eliminate...

Sot it appears the popular answer is to drill the coupler and press the pin out. What did you put in place of the pin once the coupler was installed?

Here's one without. Not sure of the application............ Not that it's the solution to your telescope issue, but a pin would probably help deter your shoes from wearing on the seal and coming out of the cup if the cover fails. Maybe some useful info on couplers here......... Mopar Steering...

I’m sure this has been covered before. I’m in the process of replacing my old power steering gear with a Firm Feel manual gearbox on my 73 340 Dart. The steering coupler was in rough shape and after driving the roll pin out and moving the steering column aft the coupler is separated from the...

Ok yeH. So my coupler just shoed up. I finally get the safety pin. Now the shoes are rectangles and...one side is round. So now. Im assuming the round side goes inboard with the flat against the body. And if that is the case, they will only fit one way. With long part of the rectangle going...

I did not forget about this car! lol I finally carved some time to get some work done to this. Another vehicle in the garage is going elsewhere to get work done so that opened up more space to rearrange some things and to get this car out of the back corner so I have more room to work. I did...

2 early style steering coupler housings and parts. If yours is missing or incomplete you might need these. Lots of loose parts, slips, pin, lugs, etc. The remains of an ebay rebuild kit is included. I want $40 shipped in the US. PP to friends, MO, Checks OK. PP with protection, add 4%. Free...

So if your going to rebuild the coupler with a kit. How are you going replace the pin? How are you going to check it for wear without removing it? I’ve seen pins that look good until they are revived, then you can see the wear. I guess you can half *** the rebuild and put new coupler shoes on a...

It's a small roll pin in the coupler. Just an interference fit.

I had installed new shoes from a later rebuild kit that I had purchased. Once everything was reassembled, the steering still had accessive play so my friend and I are tackling it again. When we opened the first time, there were no springs holding the shoes. I bought the car 4 years ago so...

For sale a pair of 3 1/2" steering shaft coupler & Borgeson universal u-joint for manual steering boxes. Coupler A – nice finish has all the coupler kit parts (less the gasket) and the pin - $50 (price without coupler clamp) Coupler B – little rougher but also has all the coupler kit...

I wouldn't mess with the pin. If you're not going to replace the center shaft, but, instead shorten your existing manual shaft, I'd get the proper P/S coupler and just telescope the shaft shorter. You give up the plastic pins in the crush zone, but, that wouldn't bother me. It might bother...

My shaft did not move within my column as the snap rings and upper bearing would retain them. I could spin the wheel when it is disconnected and the bearing would support the entire shaft. It was the column strap that was loose. The dust seal doesn't retain the shoes in the coupler but prevents...
