1973-1977 Dual Splined Steering Shaft Options - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Pics installed as requested! Borgeson shaft part # 000933. Features a 48 spline 1" unversal joint at the column, and a 30 spline 3/4" universal joint at the box. This should be correct for 73-77 trucks before they went to the metric steering gear in 1978. I did have to cut the shaft down about 6". It does state in the Borgeson instructions that on certain trucks (I assume 2WD models) that the shaft will have to be cut down some. No problemo! Then it was primered and painted satin black. Hard to say yet since the truck is not self-propelled, but steering feels infinitely better and the new shaft is a great compliment to my rebuilt Lee Power Steering box.
