steering shafts HELP pls
Does anyone know what that joing is called on the steering shaft where the 2 shafts meet? not the rag joing the one up higher. also in my last summit racing mag i seen steering shafts in there for a decent price anyone used them or know if they will work on our trucks?

How about a bump to the top since I can't recall its name.

Is this the part you are talking about? I talked to three mechanics today and they all gave me different answers. One said coupling, one said universal joint and one said steering dampner.... I found something like it in a book and they called it a splined coupler. I guess all of this makes it about as clear as mud..... Maybe someone else will chime in also. LockDoc
