MAKING & MODIFYING STEERING COLUMNS It is perfectly acceptable to make or modify your steering column provided you maintain safe operating limits and comply with collapsibility and play requirements as specified by MoT and IVA rules. Steel UJ’s can be welded to steel shafts if you immerse them in a bucket of water to sink away the heat from the spider, bearings and seals.
BALL JOINT #BALLJ2 Popular Ford OEM component. (not pattern copy) M18x1.5mm thread. 7° taper. M12 nylock nut £12 each (£14.10 inc vat)
PRESSED STEEL UNIVERSAL JOINT #UJP For steering columns & gear linkages. One end has the popular 14mm (9/16") x 36 female spline and the other end will accept a 19mm (3/4") hex shaft. Overall length 115mm x 41mm maximum diameter. £22 (£25.85 inc vat) PRESSED STEEL UNIVERSAL JOINT #UJP2 For steering columns & gear linkages.

UNIVERSAL JOINT #UJGS New shorter and lighter version of our popular UJ for rod gear linkages. We used these aircraft specification joints on our Porsche, ZF and Renault linkages and it is such a good quality product that we had to include it in our range.
