Steering Shaft Installation

*

For factory columns, aftermarket column kits require different shaft kits. Call for instructions.

1) Remove the steering coupler from the steering column. This is held in place with two bolts. If

you’re using an aftermarket column this does not apply.

2) Install new column adaptor kit shown below

SOLD SEPERATELY

(# 8020820) by bolting it in

place.

3) Mock the new steering shaft shown below

SOLD SEPERATELY

(#8050570) between the

rack and pinion and the steering column, to determine the exact size.

4) Trim the steering shaft to size. Be sure to Mis-Phase the steering U-Joints (see illustration on

next page). Drill through the u-joint yoke and shaft with the 1/4 inch drill provided. Pin the u-
joint to the shaft, using the large pin, and finish by driving the small pin into the large pin.
Install the u-joints on the column and the steering gear. Be sure to dimple the column shaft.
Tighten fasteners.

Note: When installing this kit in a car with a big block, you are limited to specific shaped
headers. We used Patriot H8012. It will also be necessary to use 3 steering u-joint when
installing this kit with a big block.
