Re: 62 Upper steering shaft coupler
I have done what you are asking about, but it was on a 1967 column. This is what I figured out with that one;
When i installed the power box with the added bracket, the input shaft on the new box sat at a slight offset from my column (and perhaps the angle or incline changed a slight amount as well). I put in a call to Borgeson and found that they have quality tech support there. They explained that one U-joint will correct and angle variation but it takes two of them to correct an offset. They helped me figure out which part numbers I needed to get one joint on the column and a vibration dampening joint on the box. Both joints had their inside sockets ready to mate with a Borgeson cut to fit double D collapsible shaft. The whole deal cost me around 250 bucks and was a weekend job. The installation instructions were decent, but there are tutorials on Youtube as well. I recall Flaming River steering had a nice one about cutting the DD shaft.
