Do you know how easy it is to drop the column out of that car? There are three small nuts at the cradle, 2 screws at the floorplate and a pin in the coupler. Plus two wire couplers. and a quick-pin/cotter-pin if column-shifted I think 10 minutes should cover it. Pull the starter as well. If the...

From 1972 -1976 I must have replace 100 or so of these on Hillsborough County Sheriffs cars. They were all Coronets. I used a tinny sharpened flat head screw driver and drove it between the outer seal area and the housing and just pried the seals out. Never damaged a sel housing. Of course this...

No need to remove that pin, pop a couple clips and the column just about falls apart. I even did mine with the coupler still attached (C-Body with heat shield) Alan

I believe he pressed the same pin back in, more in depth info. in this thread YES 5.9 Magnum manifolds work in early A bodies. Here is exactly how!

This afternoon I am going to start to take things apart so tht I can replace the lower column (engine compartment side) seal. No seal allows tons of hot air to travel up the column jacket into the car. The 65 service manual (for my 65 barracuda) shows a pinch bolt on the coupler at the...

are you referring to the injection moulded collapse pins inside the tube? If those were broke would not the entire back half of the column pull out? I was referring to the dowel pin in the diagram on the back side of the coupler? Sorry if im talking stupid this is new to me. Im prob honna have...

^^Great^^ Now go to MyMopar and download yourself a free shop manual. That one, by the way, and several others were provided over there by a few of the guys right here Pull the battery ground for safety. You might want to disconnect the steering column electrical connector, near...

I can’t seem to get this down that list bit to get a roll pin through it has anyone got any tips

Drive out the pin from the opposite side. That hole is tapered. The coupler also may have the tiny safety pin in the side.

The splines are interrupted by the cutaway for the pin. I would have a binding problem when the coupler was to start on e the second splines. I found I could put a stack of shop manuals in the drivers seat under the steering wheel to hold the column up closer to aligned, then wiggle the heck out...

I was going to order the PST manual box, but their shipping to Canada is very high (not their fault), so I found a 16:1 manual box from Classic Industries on the bay. All in shipped was less than before shipped price from PST so I gave it a shot. Arrived yesterday. It is aluminum and weighs...

On the pin at the coupler end of the shaft there’s no need to remove it unless it’s worn or damaged. The lock plate wheel can be removed by removing the pin then the shaft will come out the bottom end of the column tube. There is a service tool that will press the pin out for removal of the lock...

That is correct. The Valiant was the Barracuda in all aspects except the front grill and rear window. There were running changes on how the thing was held on: bolt, roll pin, allen set screw....The thing is to get the shoes in for minimal/no play. Her eis a great write up including the 13/16...

Looking for a solid answer on fit of this style B/C body exhaust manifold in an early A (driver's side): I keep seeing them referenced in discussions, but early A threads keep getting polluted with later A info that does not apply, and I have never actually seen any of these in use. The first...

Who said I beat the pin out Pal? Before you start talking **** about someone else you should have your facts straight! I’ve done my way for some 50 years! Without special tools.

Are the wear parts of the old '63 steering coupler with the bolt instead of the roll pin the same? If I buy a rebuild kit for the '66 and up will the sliders and pin within the coupler work on the '63 (as well as the seal and cover clamp)? Thanks, Jim

Tap tap tap. You may need to unbolt the column and pull it up for clearance. The coupler will come apart easily. It should probably be rebuilt anyway.

The hole on the left is a drift pin, the hole on the right is an index mark. Drive out the drift pin and the coupler will slide off.

In theory. LOL

My coupler is similar to the one you pictured, but it does not use a dowel nor a roll pin. The original shoes and springs consisted of two shoes (square) and two springs, seal and retainer (cover). I bought the repair kit that contained the parts that are shown in your exploded view, however the...

There’s some issue fitting the power steering box in, now that the headers are on!

Simple brake system with no valves, so time to let gravity do her thing to bleed the rear brakes. I always like a loop up to the frame to show that the air is coming out. Here come the bubbles... Nothing but fluid now and considering I have the wheel cylinder pistons pressed right in it's...

That piece is a steering coupler clamp that helps ensure the top doesn't come off the steering coupler. The side you are holding fits over the cap where the orange seal is and the two ends go into the hole where the roll pin in just out of site on the right side of the picture.

Anyone try one of these? I have to move the column and coupler and remove the pin to change the lower column seal and this looks easier than the new seal and metal cover.

Steering Coupler Rebuild "How To" When I rebuilt my coupler I also replaced the bottom seal that's on the early Barracudas. To get the seal on the pin had to be pressed out. The thing was tight!! The rest of the coupler rebuild is pretty straightforward... except for trying to get the dust...

Is it a solid pin or a roll pin? Either type of pin you do not use a drift punch (tapered). Use the proper tool and use a pin punch or a roll pin punch.

Thanks I didn’t see how to take off the steering Coupler. I took the pin out but it’s still stuck. I soaked it with Liquid wrench because it was rusted.

Hijack in progress... Does anyone know if you can remove the coupler by unbolting the steering gear, IE not removing the column? (Obviously taking the roll pin out first) Hijack over...

I do the following. be sure to use a lot of lube pulling the parts in the coupler. The spring clip, if used, goes on last. The gear box is mounted in the K frame. The coupler is mounted on the steering column then slide the column through the hole in the firewall, lining up the notch in the...
