Re: help with steering joint This might sound a silly question, but why do you need a UJ in the column? Unless either the chassis is bent or you're modifying the upper mount to change the position, it'll add nothing to the party. Or am I missing something?

Re: help with steering joint I think it's to help in the event of a bent chassis?

Re: help with steering joint C15 use the same spline setup. someone in the racing Club was going to do a search for moderns that use the same shaft Dia and spline count some of the early VAG looked promising, Ford and PAS use a triangular and slotted format - probably buy in their UJs from the same supplier. Never ever heard back from him.

Re: help with steering joint I may be wrong but I think the Burton guys told me some time that joint they use is of a visa or C15.
Maybe you could just give them a call to find out for sure.
