Installation Tips

We recommend Weldless DD and Double Splined universal joints for the best steering system.

Weldless DD universal joint features two set screws for maximum holding power. Position yoke, tighten set screws to mark the shaft.
Remove yoke and drill the set point on the shaft. When installing the universal joint, set screws are tightened into the countersink
mark, then tighten the jam nut and the shaft will not move. We recommend the use of Loctite.

Spline both ends (3/4"-36) universal joint is the preferred design, as it allows the shaft to be rotated in small increments during
installation to properly align or phase the steering system. Once the steering is set, tighten set screws to mark the shaft. Remove
yoke and drill the set point on the shaft. When installing the universal joint, set screws are tightened into the countersink mark, then
tighten the jam nut and the shaft will not move. We recommend the use of Loctite.

A FEW NOTES

**

Phasing-Keep the forks of the yokes closest to each other in line and parallel to the centerline of the shaft to avoid binding.

**

Always use the minimum angle when designing your system - ideally 10 degrees or less, NEVER MORE THAN 35 DEGREES.

**

NEVER WELD a universal joint. Welding reduces the strength of the metal and can melt the needle bearing seal.

**

BUFFING creates a very attractive finish in a matter of minutes. It is very important not to buff the caps because over heating

may damage the bearing seals.
