There was a big writeup on either CT or CCT magazine this month about how to replace your sloppy ragjoint setup in our trucks (1975, but it still applies) with an aftermarket column. What would you rather have? stock rebuilt, outdated, sloppy ... or nice, new, tight steering?

It's your call.

I have part numbers if you need them.

Part #'s please, thanks.
