Steering shaft

[SAndreasen]

What’s the best replacement steering shaft ? Mine is stripped and probably the steering box shaft I would guess . Do the borgeson shafts still come apart when the screws fall out or have they improved the design ?

If I have to replace mine, the oem aftermarket unit from Dorman appears to be a slight upgrade in design. https://www.dormanproducts.com/p-66435-425-264.aspx

Borgeson still uses that stupid design.

Looks like the OEM unit, same u-joint connections.

I may be wrong, however it appears the Dorman telescopes in the opposite direction from the old oem version.

So is the dorman the way to go then? Looks a lot cheaper than the borgeson which is good

OEM or Dorman would be my choice.

I like that Dorman . I had a borgeson i green loctited the set screws and it worked but that’s more than I’d like to spend if I don’t have to
