Hello truck lovers

Can any one tell me the steering part number in the picture below:



My truck is a 69 C-30 2WD.

Thank You..

Check with The Truck Shop in Orange CA. http://www.truckandcarshop.com They have those. I just bought one in April for my manual gear. That is called the rag joint or steering coupler.

That is the rebuild kit for the coupler/joint housing you already have. Sometimes when the rag joint goes bad, it is often not noticed until damage is to the point that the entire unit needs to be replaced...here is another source for a complete replacement:

...but most of the other vendors, Early Classics, Brothers, etc. carry steering rag joints...enter "rag joint" as your parts search.

Thank you for your suggestion,

Also, can you help me figuring the best size for a 69 Chevy truck?

Thanks

You'll need to confirm the spline count on the steering box input shaft and the corresponding size of the steering shaft. If this post was a few weeks earlier, I could've checked for you in person since I was in Chester, Il to visit in-laws.
