Flaming River on the other hand sends a DD slip shaft that slides inside the Column and cannot rotate or come loose, it is a MUCH better design, you can bolt or weld the shaft directly to a steering UV joint, I just ordered a Flaming River for my 1961 Apache and the fit is fantastic! I am very pleased!
THANKS! I feel better about the purchase I am about to make.
