Re: Collapsible intermediate shaft?

so has anyone used a power steering gear box from late 70's (1977) C10?
the way i read the specs o the input shaft from MasterPro, there are 25 or 26 spline per their website. assuming that is not counting the flat spot on the shaft.

Wanting to order the CSS-1DD730 by CPP which is the 3/4-30 spline.
just want to verify this.

Count the splines on the gear you have and order the steering joint of your choice to match the gearbox. If you're running the stock style rag joint, they all use the same intermediate shaft bolt spacing

i figured it out.
The steering gear box has 25 splines showing. the flat spot on the shaft accounts for about 5. thus a 30 spline rag joint will work. i had to process this for a moment.
