A pretty damn rusty universal steering joint.

The universal joint under the gaiter just on top of the steering rack on my CL is very, very rusty. I have checked gsf and cannot find what I need.

What do I need to replace? Can anyone help?

I got one from Rich at Crazyquiffs last year (advertised on the left of this page) Just give him a ring and ask for the steering UJ and then all you do it loosen the nuts on each end, bottom of the steering column and the top of the steeringbox and lift off and replace and tighten back up. pretty easy job really. Get a new gaiter aswell though if yours is worn out might help stop it in the future.

Thanks
Joe

P.s I gave mine some copper grease around the moving parts of the UJ aswell just to keep her sweet.

This guy is selling what you need, although he wants far too much for them in my opinion!

Ta for the nod Joe - we have good used items onthe shelf

Cheers
